Default Betty Boop on Oak
I saw the other Betty Boop that Merlin cut and I just had to cut one myself. This Betty is not quite finished. I may look for the fancy paper Merlin used. So what do you think?

BTW - I used solid oak this time and the wood didn't chip. Good-bye baltic birch plywood!

She turned out fantastic Rick! Great job. I love Betty Boop. She was the first thing I ever learned how to draw..............my grandmother taught me when I was a little kid! Thanks so much for sharing her with us.

She's pretty cute. Super cutting job. I like cutting the solid oak myself. Guess I need to find some patterns of her for myself. Pat

G'day Rick,
Nice cutting mate. Betty Boop is a favourite of my wife, her name is Elizabeth, and as a kid she was called Betty.
