Hi, I welcome you today in my room in the apartment.
Here you have seen me several times when I am working with shellac or on my marquetry.
The production of marquetry continues.
I'm working so much that you get a first impression. I am far from satisfied. This must be even better.
What needs to be improved, I will show you the same.
Before, I would like to introduce you my little gallery. This should always be greater.
Here I will always present my work in the future.
You see here the image that is to be the book cover.
I zoom in more detail and explain the current status of the work.
I inserted all around veneer parts. These represent the torn paper edge, which bends outward.
The bright veneer in the middle should be the first page in the book.
This gives the impression that you could see through the hole.
Here below is still a crack.
The spatial impression needs to be better.
In many respects me the shade by burning with hot sand is not good enough succeeded.
These pieces I will make again.
The light comes from the left. As a result, I have shadows and in this area it must be even brighter.
The above tips here are to be brighter.
Very important is the shadow. On the left side it is already good but not finished.
On the right side I have to renew the shade. Here it is too small.
This should be even more realistic 3D illusion.
We will look at whether the corrections bring an improvement.
Hello, there are two days passed.I'm quite happy with the changes.
I show the picture again up close, so you can compare if the 3D marquetry has really become better.
Reminder. It is the illusion arise that you can see on the first page of the book through a hole in the lid.
I have already selected a text that I have copied to the veneer.
In addition I have used transparent drawing paper and carbonless paper.
The first letter I have already cut out and applied veneer.
Oh, I've done something to me, it is still a lot of work waiting for me.
Before I show up, I would say that so the topic is complete marquetry.
In the next video we see ourselves in the workshop. Then I build the book.
The book consists of a box that receives an ingenious disguise. While waiting for a lot of tricky details to me. Then you can look forward.
I have replaced some parts and also added to improve the shadow play.
The writing is on display here.
I selected some text known as a German poet and as the German Fraktur font.
Of the different variant of the Gothic script I have a selected that is not too complicated. It is still difficult to edit.
The first letters are done. For a letter I needed 30 minutes. There are 55 letters to see, so booaahh ....
Times calculated from how long I work on it.
The large and complicated characters I will have to consist of small sections.
I will build on the book and make only 2 letters a day.
At the moment, shows the font as a difficult task in this project.
We'll see you in the next part in the workshop. Goodbye
Halt! Hier bin ich nochmal. Ich will Euch noch zeigen, wie ich an einem Buchstaben gearbeitet habe.
I show how I gouge the letter. Cutting is hardly possible.
