<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mirana, post: 10302424, member: 79705&quot;]No pitting. It&#039;s completely smooth in relation to those dots. I would be very interested to confirm that your known celluloid &quot;ivory&quot; has a similar close-up look so I can learn.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is possible it was molded and then further shaped but it definitely 100% has been manipulated with tools at some stage. It&#039;s so hard for my camera to show it because it&#039;s so light but you can see the scratch marks around each bit of hair and dig outs at the base of the neck and in-between locks. The surface tool marks are on the entire thing. So it&#039;s not oh there&#039;s signs in a couple places...every surface is scratched in varying degrees of depth, in contour with the portrait (not as incidental scratches from use). I think that&#039;s easiest to see in the hair which is adjusted or modeled in a rather clumsy way. The back of it is also solid and has been aggressively dug out and shaped with bigger tools. </p><p><br /></p><p>When I&#039;m at my computer I&#039;ll see if I can find a better photo. I have a new phone and the camera that&#039;s supposed to be fancier is giving me worse photos than my very old one. I&#039;m sure it&#039;s user error because there are so many options but it&#039;s infuriating. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /> The macro setting is giving me less detail than the normal lens! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie19" alt=":banghead:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
