First "Large" Carving done and painted

[RobertP]

Okay, this sign is only 22" in diameter, but its my first stitch carving. It was a fairly easy process after its all said and done, just have to give a big thanks to this forum for providing all the how to info! :D

Excellent tiling job! I can only guess as to where the slice is.

Beautiful! Can't see the joint at all. It's nice to see that kind of attention to detail, especiallly for the first time.

Outstanding carving and what a great job on joining it togeather.

Very very nice.

What paints did you use on it?

[SharonB]

Excellent job.

[Smoken D]

Great Job! It really came out nice!

[RobertP]

Thanks guys!

Robert, I used a copper hammertone paint on this and then antiqued it with a stippling method using enamel paint, quite a tedious task.

That looks great. Well done. I hope my first big carving comes out half as good.

RobertP,

Thank you for the information on how you painted the project.

Thats awesome! Thats great how more people are doing the tiling process. Making big signs with a small machine. New slogan perhaps? I call dibs on that one.

Good Job RobertP. I couldn't even begin to guess where you joined the 2 pieces together. Thanks for showing it off.
