Welcome back,

In part one I showed you how I rough out the oak leaves.

I had secured the work by gluing it to a piece of MDF added the veins.

You can see that here;
Part 1

In Part 2 I develop the shape of the leaves and add more detail.

I also added to spotlights to my work area and hopefully that has improved the video.
