Popular Post FrankEV Posted August 17, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) Found this image on-line and just could not resist converting it into a Scroll Saw Pattern. The cut panel is 5/32” x 11” x 17” solid core Birch Ply mounted to a 1/4” x 11” x 17” BB Ply Backer. Both the Backer and cut panel are Hand Painted mainly using an Air Brush and Artist Acrylic Air Brush Paints. A little regular Artist Acrylic Paints and brush work was used for some details and the gold belt buckle. The painting work was quite difficult and time consuming due to the many colors and the necessary drying time between colors so adjacent areas could be masked with tape. I’m feeling good about how well II was able to use the Air Brush. You will notice I was even able to get some light blue shading in the eyes and light gray shading in the white fur of the coat and hat. Pretty close match to the original color image I was attempting to duplicate. Cutting was done with Pegas #2/0 Spiral blades. The assembled panel was protected with multiple coats of Clear Gloss Acrylic Finish. The frame is my typical 1 3/4" wide Premium Pine, primed and painted bright Red (It is a Christmas Piece, you know!). If this fun piece does not sell quickly, it will hang in in my home for the holidays. Comments and Critiques always welcome.

Dak0ta52 Posted August 17, 2023 Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 Nailed it again, Frank. The colors really make this piece. Awesome job with the airbrush. I've found the airbrush leaves a much smoother coverage than using a paint brush. FrankEV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
