COMPLETED
Finished over the weekend. At a carving show on Saturday, a fellow member asked what I was doing with the eyes and offered me a couple small plastic eyes. Simply paint the back side the color you want, drill two small holes and use some super glue to hold them in, After placing the eyes, I decided to paint the beak and feet yellow as well - kind of ties it all together. Dipped in antiquing solution, several coats of Deft and sign! Onto next project (with work on the eagle in between  )     |
