This is a job I just finished yesterday and I really enjoyed doing.
I am no David Smith, that's for sure... but I've been wanting to do a big gold leaf project for a while now and fortunatelly the oportunity came to do it in PUB (wich makes it even more fun).
It was my very first comissioned gilding project... it was hard and a few things came out wrong during the process, but afterall I was able to save it and I was really pleased with the final result.
Here's a few pics of the process all the way back to the sketch:
Thanks for watching =)
