So I was supposed to do a Mt Rushmore engraving and I will, trust me. It is just that I played Terran for a couple of games and I was hooked to the gameplay with the race. I just felt it proper to do a Marine. Here it is:

It came out much cleaner than the Zealot I did earlier. I tested some different settings and also I tried to keep the shape recognizable for us, the nerds, yet also pretty simple.

Really cool man, What exactly is it engraved into? What tools are you using to make this? Looks very defined.

Ah, just some piece of plywood, nothing special. I did some engraving on a Wooden particle boards, coated with a white layer. It was glorious. I think it's the best. Black from the laser stands so crisp on the white sheet. It came out too black but that one is on me because I messed up the brightness/contrast setting.

I do it on a CNC engraving machine with an additional laser. It's just a basic CNC machine 1310, this is the model, I don't think it's branded or something. It can also drill 3D models but I am not skilled in any 3D software so for now I stick to what I know - Photoshop 2D models and then I load them into the machine for laser engraving.

What do you mean? I can easily engrave one but how would you receive it? Waiting time aside, the shipping cost would be insane. Or so I suppose, I do not actually know. If you're ok with shipping and eventual delays I can send you an engraving, nothing's easier than that.
