Popular Post DickMira Posted August 21, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Black patches under the eyes give this troublemaker a masked appearance. Raccoons are cunning animals with great dexterity and an abundance of curiosity. They venture from the woods at night stirring up all kinds of trouble for farmers and home owners. This project utilized a piece of polished African Sapele 18" x 12" x 1", cut on the scroll saw and then carved. It was painted with artist oil paints and acrylic paints with a water based satin Minwax Polycrylic protective coat. Thanks for looking.
