Can the Scorch Marker Pro Replace a Woodburning Iron?

close up of the Scorch Marker Pro pen; caption: Tried a new burning technique called the Scorch Marker. I definitely like it. Of course, I spilled it. What I would like is a way to make a third value (dark, medium, bare).

The sponge brush side is what I spilled. I'll see if my old wood burning tool will be able to make that medium tone.

I used a photo I took of a doe in my backyard. Took that photo into GIMP to reduce the number of tones through pixelation. Traced over the sections. Printed the stencil. Taped it to the wood. Traced over it and made indentations. Drew with the Scorch Marker Pro. Applied the heat gun. Had to go over it with traditional wood burning iron. Added white highlights to the eyes. Top coated it with Smooth-On’s Tarbender. Patreon.com/amberunmasked
