Designing the scrollwork.

The weld at the bottom of the tank was irregular, so I made it into a rose stem.

 

Refining the scrollwork.  Also sanded off the "GAS" lettering on the gas cap to
make it into the Alpha and Omega monogram.

Starting to cut some outlines and lettering.

 

Background removal.  Mostly done with an air chisel.  I use a Lindsay Nitro G20 for the heavy stuff.
I also use diamond coated round dremel bits.
