Here is the one I am just finishing, it’s my biggest one so far, and I ruffed it then sanded it and oil/stained it... and will sand it down again. You can see on the ruff where I put stain on the raised parts so I could see better at what I wanted to do. It’s the same when I stain it the first time as a whole; it helps me see what I need to fix and re sand. Not sure if this is a good way to do it but its working for me atm. The sanding, staining, sealing, finishing parts are still a problem for me.




Had planed on just having an open mouth, then decided to leave it, but never made the teeth. Think I might try some teeth and if they don’t look good, it’s easy to just take them out.

Anyway I hope to finish it this weekend maybe put a reddish stain on it... who knows.
