Below is a pair of Ruger revolver grips in bonded ivory (a mixure of powdered ivory and resin). These attractive grips were scrimmed on both sides with a theme honoring Chief Joseph.
The challenge of scrimming portraits is that there is little room for error if you want your subject to be recognized. That means more time and effort go into portraits than other subjects I scrim. Generally, I no longer accept human portrait requests because I would need to charge more for them that most people would be willing to pay.
