cardinal leather Report post Posted September 11, 2015 This was a contest project from earlier this year. I modified it some so that i could give it to my grandaughter when it was completed. It turned out well enough except for the loss of color. The stain was applied before the resist had properly set. Patience is key. Emilly is happy with it so I am happy with it.

capsterdog Report post Posted September 11, 2015 Looks great, I would be proud of it too if my grandpa made me one. She will treasure it always. The paint job really does not look that bad. It toned it down a bit but still looks very nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
