Boston Bruins Plaque

[rdatelle]

Hi everyone. I just finished this piece yesterday. This is a sample I made for a friend of mine. I want to thank Gordie for sending me the pattern plus a couple more he sent me. This one is made out of 3/4 Oak with a 1/8 B/B background. I know there colors are black and gold but I didn't want to take away from the Oak and paint it. I'll do one more out of pine and paint it black and gold and see which one looks better. Well I took Waynes advice and did  this one with a black backer.

Why not just paint the backing black and leave the oak alone as it is already goldish...

Very nice cutting

That's not a bad idea. I might try that.

Would give it a great contrast, been meaning to do the brings logo myself

Very nicely done.  Thanks for sharing these with us.   I tend to like the black background the best.

I'm partial to yellow but the black is the best looker.

Wayne, I did a Red Sox one already. I'll see if I can find it and put it on again.

Nice work. I too like it with the black background over the yellow. Pops a lot more. Thanks for sharing.

[wombatie]

Great cutting Ralph.  It loses a lot with the yellow background though, I prefer the black.
