Popular Post Millwab Posted May 17, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 17, 2022 I decided to try bevel cutting the "fossil" pattern by Steve Good. Then I decided to take it up a notch. Instead of clear coating or staining I sprayed it with "stone" paint to give it more of a look of being excavated from rock. meflick, preprius, John B and 25 others 28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millwab Posted May 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) Using the stone paint also gives you the option of cutting the fossil separately and gluing it to the backer if you don’t want to bevel cut it. It (the paint) will cover up the fact that it’s glued onto the surface and still give the illusion of "coming out of" the background.

spirithorse Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 Very nice! The stone paint sure makes a difference from the baltic birch cutting. God Bless! Spirithorse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
