I want to do most of this but it sure eats up the time. Plus you have to buy the artwork. these were not bad the little dragon corners were 10.00 and the gecko was 10.00 so thats not bad but some are 50 to 75. so iti s expensive to just play with the. plus the cut time the gecko took about 50 minutes and the dragons about 25 minutes each. I cut these pretty fine to keep sanding down. they can be done faster and take a little more work sanding. it is a trade off in time verses machine time. but since it is for me I don't want to sand anymore then I have too.
here is a panel I did to try to make the art raised and make the rest of the panel flat the next are closeups. then I did the gecko at full depth and got more details. these with cut with a 1/8" ball nose endmill. it's hard to get the details in the pics. finish will help bring it out.
