Popular Post FrankEV Posted September 13, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 I purchased a packet of Road Runner SVG files on-line, although I was only looking for this one image to pair with my “Wile E Coyote Help” piece. The SVG’s have many layers and after considerable trial and error attempts, I was able to segregate all the color layers leaving only the Black outline that I was able to convert into a scrollable red/gray pattern by adding a bunch of bridges. I sized the pattern to fit nicely on a 5/32” x 11” x 14” solid core Maple Ply panel. The cut panel was affixed to an 1/4” x 11” x 14” BB Ply backer that had been painted with Krylon rattle can spray Gloss Black. After relatively easy cutting with Pegas #1 MGT R blades, the remaining interior areas was painted with Artist Acrylic Paints. I painted each visible bridge Black, so it has the appearance of the outlines being continuous. And, like usual, the assembled panel was protected by multiple coats of Deft Clear Gloss Lacquer. The Frame is 1 3/4” wide pine painted Glidden Gloss Black. I think I will need to give the frame another coat of paint as the Pine wood grain is too visible in the photo.

preprius Posted September 14, 2022 Report Share Posted September 14, 2022 I like your roadrunner alot. great colors and nice pose. I can also see this done on a wooden tool tray. ACME tool tray. roadrunner on one end and Wyle on the other end. Of course holding scrow saw blades. Ok maybe an Acme tissue box. Just throwing ideas out. In no way take this as a distraction from this piece. Me Mark Eason FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barb.j.enders Posted September 14, 2022 Report Share Posted September 14, 2022 Great piece. I don't see the grain in the frame, or what bit I see when I enlarge, isn't' enough to distract from the whole FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dak0ta52 Posted September 14, 2022 Report Share Posted September 14, 2022 Nice one, Frank. Looks like you're cutting cartoons from my era. Beep,beep! FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John B Posted September 14, 2022 Report Share Posted September 14, 2022 If a cartoon cutting can be great, you did it Frank. I truly like him. I also loved the cartoons and barracked for Wylie. Perhaps that's why I'm a lousy gambler FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that can happen Copyright protections would prevail. ACME Tools would have thought about that a long time ago. I'm not even planning to sell my Wile E Coyote or this Road Runner because I beleive it would be a breach of Copyright or Trademark. I plan to just keep them for my own enjoyment.

heppnerguy Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I love the cartoon character cut from wood. I have also done a few and probably will do some more in the future. You do such a nice job with your projects and I love your finishing of them as well Dick heppnerguy FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
