Exactly why I asked. Was wondering if it just takes a little time to become tolerant. Hits a strange spot for me and I can tolerate a lot of bad smells. This one is just different. And my wife also hates it and insisted that I stop the last time I tried it. She even washed those clothes separately but I could still smell it on the clothing for a few cycles. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks for the info. It is one of those smells that is hard to explain. It sticks with me for days. I will have to try a better respirator because I only used one of the generic ones and it did not help smell at all. It is worse than burnt hair imo. Ideally, I want to make a full chess set using bone for black and antler for white pieces.

I have been learning this process and wonder if you have the same issues that I do when grinding antler. Does the smell make you super nauseated? I am trying to work around it, but it triggers me for some reason. I use antler from white tail deer but I also smell it when I grind bone material as well. Any tricks to cover it would be appreciated. Nice work

Thank you for sharing. I have not picked up a brush for several years, but I have never been more tempted after seeing this piece. I have never worked with alcohol ink so I need to do some research because I love what you were able to do with it.

Nice, I thought it as a good picture in the thumb. Nice to see the detail and you have some strong shadowing skills.
