Popular Post FrankEV Posted August 10, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Wanted to see if I could do a decent job on a Dog portrait. Found a bunch of stencils and images of various breeds. This Pitbull Portrait with a Heart, caught my eye. I converted it to a scroll Saw Pattern and sized it to fit on an 8x10 Panel. The panel is 5/32” solid core Birch Ply. Using my Air Brush, I painted both the 1/4” BB Ply backer and the cut panel with Artist Acrylic Air Brush paints. The Panel was cut using Pegas #2/0 Spiral blades. As usual, after painting and assembly the panel was protected with multiple coats of Krylon Clear Gloss Acrylic Finish. The panel is mounted in a very inexpensive 8x10 frame I purchased in bulk on Amazon. I think it came out fairly nice, if I have to say so myself! Comments and critiques always welcome. EDIT: I posted the pattern in PATTERN EXCHANGE Edited August 10, 2023 by FrankEV barb.j.enders, jr42, Gene Howe and 9 others 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was trying to get some very fine lines but couldn't. Had to speak with my son. He said I needed to lower the pressure. Had not tried that. Still lots still to learn.

Take the nozzle cap off the brush and get as close to your work as possible with the needle .
