Bust Image: Progression Photos..YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS!

[{Sentinel}]

So, the scene was EXT. Big deep hole when I found this plate as the other posts explain. At first I thought it was just a piece of junk metal but as I lightly cleaned the surface I noticied it had been etched so I put it in the pouch and the rest is history. I posted some photos of it and haven't done anything to it in about a week. I got the idea today since it is carved in the Intaglio style (depression) to fill in the depressions with a matrix to see if it would bring the MAN TO LIFE....Really let us see who he was..Plus there were several people asking me to make a "print" of it. I believe this worked just as well and... Well, THE PHOTOS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES One of the best finds I've ever dug!

The first photo was of the piece uncleaned and fresh out of the ground


Next, I lightly cleaned it with water to give it alittle more depth and it made a nice difference



And than, today, here's the final picture with the depressions filled in



Here's a photo of the back, I couldn't make out any distinguishing marks though.
