So you are going to add a stain to him after that? I didn't know you could put a stain on a poly. And if that is the case, that is it darken it? I was looking at your pictures pg. 43 and 46 (the best ones for views) to get the wood grains down, for mine. If anyone doesn't know, I did one with Ben's blessing as a one off mug, HERE But after your post now, the poly brought all the grain back out. After you sanded it, it looked like some went away, and now it showed up better. Some of those picture can be throw you off. The picture above with the shot from the back, the head looks way thicker at the top. I noticed to that you added another set of cuts to the ear, making three groups. The final set are at the bottom.
