Description

My very first engraving using a dithered based technique. :D  
(The engraving was done in October 2019)
 
 
About the engraving  
For my ever first engraving, I wanted to do something special. I had chosen the picture from LimreiArt since I am a big fan of his fallout Equestria pictures and because it was designed as grayscale. Because of this, I had to make only some changes during the conversion.
 
 
About technique  
I learned this technique thou a tutorial by the YouTuber SarbarMultimedia. The required testings took a view hours, but there were definitely worth spend. The results were great engraving parameters for the laser I have access to.  
I would highly recommend the video if you have access to a CO2 Laser with the RDWorks Software.
