Something NEW: Astro Boy

i wanted to do something new, something different and something cute, so i did a small printing block. i found a cute looking character and drew it on the little lino block with pencil then the rest is history


my handy tool and cute little astro boy waiting to be carved




occasionally applying heat to the block to soften the surface for easier carving




carefully carving the outline of astro boy. time consuming but fun




final product!



my very first experience of block carving was in high school, i almost forgot how fun it was! i am planning to carve something bigger and with higher level of difficulty :)
