Here is the scroll of the Red Fiddle, the edges outlined with black paint –
The paint was applied with a very small brush and I found that using it sideways along the chamfer of the scroll was the easiest method for getting a clean line.
The inspiration is the scroll of Stradivari’s masterpiece, the Messiah.
Now to get some red varnish on this fiddle!

The black outline is STRIKING! Very nice choice.
