So I added bark texture to this one and bigger eyes. I think it helps a lot from this

They all look good, just keep making them all different and trying new things. It will make them seem unique when someone is choosing between 3.

How long does it take to cut and sand/smoothen out the log?

Around 1.5-2.5 hours. Depending on me. :homer:

I am getting noticeably faster though. The few pros I follow do a very pimp owl in 30 is minutes... If I could hit an hour ish I would be happy.

About 1.5 hrs with a coat of verathane.

Finished these 2 with Penofin Red label clear. Like the finish better but have to wait for them to air out. Fucking smelly stuff

Nice work man, & cool to watch the learning curve. If you haven’t started at page 1 & watched it for yourself lately you should. :beer:

Thefishguy77 · Jul 21, 2021

Thank you. Was kind of fun to look back on.

Tried burning the “bark” before finishing it. I like it.

Planning on Here & Gone front and back. And Welcome & Go Away front and back, and then Open & Closed front and back. Need some thicker stock. Time to find some old stumps.

Looking great! I just recently saw this technique the other day, may be cool to add to some of your pieces.

Wood Burning Lichtenberg Figures

Wood Burning Lichtenberg Figures: Wood burning can add a unique element to your wooden creations. But using a simple wood burning pen set can be challenging unless you have lots of artistic talent (I do not that's for sure). Wood burning with high voltage is a unique way to mark you…

Knocked another one out today. Time to see if zi can peddle a few of them to the Yuppie stores up north.

SomeGuyFromOlympia · Jul 24, 2021

Saw this today, thought of this thread

I challenge you to make a oink sir :grinpimp:

Got 3 gone so had to carve some more.
Been playing with burning them before finishing them as well as feather texture. Not super happy with either of these 2 but not terrible. Like the head on one and body on the other :homer:
