I think I need to make a small correction...Not about Freddy Kruger's portret ( :) ), but the technique - it is actually a 'dry point' and not an 'etching'. Since this category was not quoted, I choose the one, which is the closest to it...Anyway, that's it:)

awsome drypoint! dry point is cool although I hate the part when you have to remove all the excess ink :/ did your hand hurt in all the procces of scraping your glass/acrylics plate?
