It took about 2 hrs to carve. I used .125 ball nose for rough and .0625 ball nose for finish.

Tony,

All I can say is the detail on your lithos is amazing. Beautiful work!

Can you tell me exactly what material you're using and where you get it. You apparently have found the right combination, it might help me from trying the wrong things. Granted learning/trial and error is the best experience but I don't want to try and re-invent the wheel.

The elephant was my wife's idea for a friend of hers.
