One of my favorite designs!
« on: December 15, 2013, 11:05:23 pm »
I just completed this one.  The pictures are of the new one pre and post painting.  The other picture is of the one I made for my wife over 20 years ago.  We hadn't realized how much it had faded and browned with age till we had the new one by it's side!

Nicely done.  What kind of paint are you using?

Thanks for the kind words!  DW - it is the craft water based cheap paint from Wal-Mart (50 cents/bottle).  Some of it is really watered down to allow the grain to come through.
