Popular Post FrankEV Posted August 9, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 Another fun image I found and just had to convert to a scroll saw 11”x14” pattern. Although the image was a simple B&W line image, my brain said ‘color’. However, it turned out to be a lot harder to make it a color project then I expected. It sat around my painting area for over three weeks before I finally decided on how I thought I wanted it to look. I first tried to color just the backer, but it just did not read well. So, I wound up hand painting both the backer and cut panel with Artist Acrylics. I'm not sure I did it justice, but my Lady thinks it came out good, so I'm happy. The Cut panel is 5/32” solid Core Maple affixed to a 1/4” BB Ply Backer. Most of cutting was done with Pegas #1 MGT R blades while a few of the small areas was done with #2/0 MGT R blades. After painting and assembly, the panel was protected with multiple coats of Deft Clear Gloss Lacquer. The frame is 1 3/4” wide Poplar finished with Rust-OLeum Black Lacquer.
