            In high school I processed a lot of cattle and I hated those intricate brands! But it does look good!

                I remember reading that brands we’re registered when I was a youth. Is that still a practice? Great work!

                    Interesting. I’ve been pondering a brand for me as well. My initials are MC. I was thinking MC4. Something like yours. I like.

                        This x 2. Your work looks great, but on an animal it's gonna be blotchy in those corners and joints.

                            That usually makes it worse, at least for me.
                            Also the reason all the old ranches have flowing brands, like the King ranch, Matador and 6666. None of those have sharp corners or joints.
                            I'm far from an expert though.
