Need your opinion

[Nickel Falls]

I stack cut these 2 wolves and stained them differently.

Cant decide which I liked more, so I thought yall might give me your opinion.

 

[barb.j.enders]

I like the first one better.

[Scrappile]

I like one first,,,, but maybe it is because of the board you have it on.  If the second one was on a similar natural looking board,,, it would be a toss up to me.

[FrankEV]

The cutting on both is nice. but...... 

The first one is a little nicer because it is darker, but the uneven tone of the wood/stain (?) is a distraction.

Unfortunately I wont give any real acalades to either.  Not sure if it is the choice of the wood or stain or both. 

And, just in my opinion, I'm not fond of the overly ragged distressed panel edges.  The eye apealing presentation is just not there.

I'm kinda partial to the second one, myself, due to the greater contrast between the wolf and the backer.

[Fish]

That is hard to decide, both are very nice.  I think I like the second one the most. Great job.

[rjR]

Personally I have to agree with Fish & R.A.. the bottom one has better contrast.

I also have always liked the ragged edges look on may things.   

I guess the rustic appeal is the farm boy background showing through.

Funny, how different people perceive and like different things isn’t it. I find plenty of eye appeal and like the last three posters before me, I like the 2nd one best because I too think it “pops” a little more due to the brighter lighter color background. I don’t always like ragged edges, but sometimes I do, it depends on the subject and purpose.  I like it here with the wolf myself. Nice work on both. Clearly a great example here of beauty (or not) being in the eye of the beholder.

I can see the second one better, so I like it better.

[rjweb]

I like the second one better, you did a real nice job on them both, RJ 

[goldfish]

I think the second is the one that stands out the best. Good work on both though

[flarud]

The 2nd one for sure!  I like both but I really like the 2nd one.   

[Rockytime]

They are both very nice but I prefer the second one hands down.

I would have to choose the second one but had you stained th the backer board behind the wolf head black and left the the rest as it is, I would have voted for number one

A really nice job of cutting.

They are both very nice. But the bottom one really jumps out at me and is my favorite. 

[John B]

Out of the two, I like the second because of the contrast, but I don't really go for the burnt look.
Suppose I saw too much of that in 70's

I like the 2nd on best It just showes off the wolf in a different light.

[daveww1]
