Here's a little #woodcarving from a few weeks ago. Again, 4x1x1" #basswood and finished with a simple stain and varnish.

An older #woodcarving that I varnished then used some green #stain over the #varnish to darken the crevices. Kinda like it.

Another of my #woodcarvings with and without a paint job.
Again, it started as a 4x1x1" piece of #basswood. Once it's carved, I paint them with #watercolor then give them a coat of varnish. For this guy I also added a wooden disc base with fake grass and a little plastic dog. Just to finish it off..

A few more photos of the final thing.
Basswood, 4x1x1". Done using a #flexcut Carvin' Jack multi tool. But, really, you can use any knife. As long as it's sharp.

And here's the final thing.
A quick stain then varnish. Once the varnish is dry some darker stain (to bring out the details) and a final varnish.

Here's the smooth little guy with some wax on him. I can never get wax to shine. Oh well. 😊

Trying to carve a figure as I normally would then use a cordless Dremel tool with small drums to sand the future.
Which look do you prefer; smoothed or unsmoothed?

Usually I carve and that's that. This time I decided to give it a sand with a Dremel drum and a manual smooth with fine sandpaper. Came out not too bad.

A chonky #linden #tree for #ThickTrunkTuesday. I’ve never seen a trunk like this before! This tree (also sometimes called a #basswood) can be found almost anywhere in the #midwest and east coast of the #US - all the way from #florida, to even parts of southern #Canada.
