I have at last pushed myself to get back in the workshop, its been months since I turned. This piece stands 4" high and 3" at widest made from Horse Chestnut that had a horrible grey splated wash through the wood, tuned and hand carved then some texturing applied before coloring with airbrushed acrylics. This is inspired from a piece I saw last year, I dont know where on a forum or in the flesh but when I saw the piece I made a mental note that I would try it out one day so here it is.
As i have so few finished pieces this may have to be one I bring along to Loughborough.
Cheers Martin.
