My daughter made this for her big brother.

We finished it off with BLO and later maybe in a few weeks we will add a bit of poly to it.

Love the eyes...

Hint mix the blo with mineral spirits 50/50..It will make the BLO dry much quicker.
Shhhhh it's our secret.

Thank you. My baby is 10 years old. Yes her brother scrolls but only on his terms ;0`

I heard mixing BLO and Mineral spirits makes it dry faster. Does it require that I use more applications since I am reducing the BLO?


Thank you,
VB...

I showed my daughter several finishing options. She chose BLO/Poly. The only thing left is to make a frame.

I attached some pics to show the BLO/Poly Finish. I have to say I really like the way it came out.
