Popular Post FrankEV Posted December 3, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 The Sleigh Image was a free downloadable zip file that included a SVG file which I was able to manipulate in Inkscape. I sized the image to fit within an oval I created (approximately 11 1/2” x 15 1/2”) that I cut from a piece of 1/2” x 12” x 16” sanded ply. The image was cut from 1/8” thick BB ply. The backer was painted white with Krylon rattle can paint. I used Artist Acrylics to paint the cut panel (originally image was only B&W) and the perimeter vertical edge of the backer. The assembled Plaque was protected with multiple coats of Clear Minwax Polycrylic finish. Just another Xmas decoration that will be stored away 11 months of the year. Comments and critiques welcome.

Scrappile Posted December 3, 2022 Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Clever and cute. Nice job.. Got me a pretty good airbrush, for painting this type of project....Hope I finish one, one of these days that I can try it out on. Just don't seem to accomplish much in the old shop anymore.

Blaughn Posted December 4, 2022 Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 Nice. The shapes and colors provide a kind-of action to the piece. FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry walters Posted December 4, 2022 Report Share Posted December 4, 2022 Very nice Frank. I learn a lot from everyone on scroll saw village. Even a simple project like this looks great after so many of you finish it. I hope I can do that someday. I keep trying.
