I take my hat off to anyone who has the patience to do this sort of work.
And from what I can see the pattern you've created looks excellent.
Oh Lord, Lead me not into temptation…

...Oh who am I kidding, follow me, I know a shortcut!

I, like Bryan, admire anyone who does any kind of segmented work, way beyond my patience level. This one looks even more cpomplex. Lovely work.

Excellent work. I see the influence of Craig Kirks here in the tope feature ring. Well done.

I'm not normally keen on segmented work , However this is the exception , It just works as in my eye its not overdone

Love it  :)

Segmented work is one thing but to incorporate curves in the piece just takes it to the next level. would have loved to see the work in progress just out of interest as this is not something that is on the cards for me
