Samples, samples, samples!

This is my sample shape. It is supposed to be similar to a rams horn but at this point I'm exploring the tools. I hammered too hard on my lining tool so now the lines are ridges but it is ok because samples are for practice.     
     Another thing I should mention is that when you're making your tools you must think of the shapes and spaces you want to achieve. During my sample process I ended up filing some of my tools more to make the shape of them more desirable to accomplish maximum design technique. I softened the tip of my lining tool as well as easing up on the pressure being used. I also filed my tear drop chasing tool more sharply to get into tiny corners.
