Found a scrimshaw artist! w/ pics

You might remember my post a little bit ago looking for a scrimshaw artist. I ended up using Gatogordo's suggestion of Ron Leubke Jr. Yes, he does a lot of nudes, but after looking at his work I emailed him and told him what I had and what my idea was, and although it's a departure from what he normally does, he said he'd be willing to do the work. Fast-forward two weeks and I am a happy camper. Ron took my idea, asked for a bit of latitude on the execution (which I happily gave him) and he made what will be (I think) very nice Christmas gifts for my wife and daughter. The wife is a snow bunny so she gets the snowflake.

Highly recommend Ron, friendly, fast, reasonable and damn good!

Wow. Those are nice! I can see where the wife would not appreciate a nude.

That is nice, Baxter.

What's the material he's working with?
