Impresive build.

Could you give a little more detail on how you created that wood effect? It's rather impressive

[TugCowboy]

I have to say I really like that.
Great build and thanks for sharing. As has been said the wood effect is great!

Good morning.. and thank you Friends..

the effect of wood is so easy to achieve.. i am using brushes for this along with enamel paints.. at first apply surfacer all over the craft... allow to dry.. then decide what kind of wood that we need, as red wood, teak.. etc.. for red wood, we need post office red, black, a little yellow and orange.. add a little black to red, until it reaches a dark deep red.. brush it to an area, then stroke with a pich of black, and yellow.. within a short time.. the black sade instantly merges to the red makes an impression of wood grain.. can make any grains, from red wood to balsa.. after drying we can apply wood clear coat... so can also use in salt water as you see.. its easy.. i will add a little video..
