David Ivy Posted October 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 This one was an idea that I had to do a Phoenix on a mockingbird kit. I wood burned the the outline of the Phoenix & hand painted it with 6 paint markers. Blending and painting & finished with tru oil. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizman62 Posted October 10, 2020 Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 You, sir, are a true burning artist! And using clothing dye instead of whining how proper stains are hard to find is worth a thumbs up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyjr1515 Posted October 10, 2020 Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 Impressive! Especially the technique of variable burn-browning. Amazing. I used fabric dye on my first couple of stained builds. Worked well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
