Beautiful, detailed work. I use this type of scratchboard because it's the first that I bought, and found the Claybord Ink can be painted over and re-scratched if I make an error like a bad crossing in knotwork.
On this particular type of scratchboard - no, there's no reworking - once I've scratched down to the white, I'm done. I can go back with a pen and put in black, but can't scratch any further.
There are other brands of scratchboard that have a thicker coating and can be reworked. EssDee and Paris (ScratchArt) are brands I recommend for that.
Patience, perhaps, or maybe I'm just insane?!? But seriously, I really enjoy working with scratchboard and the challenge of rendering detail using just black & white!
