Looks great, Kevin. Did you stain and wipe it? Also what settings did you use?

I used a brush to stain it and I had the depth at .250 and height at 300 and I inverted the PTN. I used 2 different stains so it would stand out.

Pretty darn good Kevin!

By looking at Your carving I see nothing wrong with it at all ..good job.. maybe you need to step up the game and do a lithophane !
Junior Member
Very impressive, are litho coming next. Which one do you prefer?
Junior Member

Nice job, Kevin. The stain really has brought out the detail you put into the carve. Well done!!

The stain really does bring out all the detail. I like to use a brush and leave the stain heavy in spots and light in others.
