Yer a machine Shannon ;D. Them look good and like the background too. Those edges straighten up pretty easily if their half way straight before you start the fine work. Just rub the edges a couple of times with a fine abraider so you can see all the deltas and which way they need to be picked off back and forth to make the edge straight, it'll be sharp too :).

D. Tiller:
Oh, thank god! I was thinking you were the next robustus.  :o  Now I see humps and a couple hinges. I feal much better now!  ;D

Great points by the way. Wish I was doing that well when I started out.

mullet:
  You are way ahead of the learning curve , Shannon.Like Cowboy said those edges are easy to straighten up. Real nice points.

D. Tiller:
Also, remember treat pressure flaking reduction just like you would percusion. Always take from below the center line. That way it will always be lenticular and you wont hing flake as much!
