| Nice Job, Daryl. I might have tried to make the nose (what there is of it) darker, but I'll bet it;ll be a winner with your lucky neighbor. Sandy |

Nice work, how did you keep the stain from bleeding to the different sections. That looks like a Judy Gale fine line design.

Great job Daryl! The way you stained that piece is awesome. That really shows creativity. I like the eyes too, Beagles always have such sad looking eyes ![]() That is a piece anyone would love to have.

Nicely done, Daryl but I'm wondering how you would hang something like this on a wall. I recently acquired the dog breed book by Judy Gale but didn't realize the portraits were all with a round frame. I'm going to eliminate the circular portions and cut them like all my portraits.

Mike on mine I mount a sawtooth hanger on the forehead instead of the ring, Rolf I downloaded the pattern from Scrollsaws free download section from one of the back issues there are several free patterns there and to stop the bleeding I took a tip from again the Scrollsaw tips section and used a wood burning tip to outline the areas where the stains would touch thanks everyone for your words of incouragement and comments and Sheltie I took your tip and will black the nose out thanks |
