hello everybody, this is my first experience of sand, willow, what you often see along the ditches of the campaign, I tried to follow the grain of the wood to choose the parts to work, hope you like
thanks for assistance and advice :)


P.S. : My gun blast is not very good, I thought I'd look for something better :o

That's a really neat looking piece! The sandblasting adds a unique character to it. I like that, and yet more inspiration to try something new, thanks for that.

I would probably not have chosen the finish that you did. The piece seems pretty organic, and to me, the shine is a bit distracting. Maybe different in the hand compared to the pic. Nice work.

Hello Richard, I also use very little of the gloss finish, in this case I wanted a contrast to the blasted it's over oil
thanks for your assistance :)
