Hi,

Thanks, seeksurf! The next step I will create ist the interior of the box. An A-frame shack, a fire place, palms .... I will post the pics, if I have done the next steps. I try to be busy! :)

TheBigT, first I mixed Yogurt with pigments and colored the wood. I used a lots of pigments and so the color was very top-dress and for my liking too clean. So I used a steel brush to remove a littel bit of the color.
Very careful and only with the direction of the wood grain.
After that I used an old flannel and polished it a little bit with wax to close the wood pores.

Have a greet weekend,

Kai
