Popular Post meflick Posted March 2, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) Here are two Santas I cut out on the scroll saw (stack cut them so identical cuts). I finally got them finished. The first one is hand carved and then painted with acrylic paints. The second one has no carving, but i used the pyrography unit (wood burning) and burned the fur, beard, and other details before then using artist colored pencils to color him with. The beads on the legs were store bought. As you can see, the different techniques used on each gives very different looks to each. I used the different techniques to see how each would look. I love them both. Β The pattern is from Lora Irish.
