Hello,
Great looking sailfish carved in the door! What is the overall size of the carved area, and what does the door go to? Thanks for posting the picture!
Best regards,

Vectorart3d file, 33x15, .625 deep, .25 bullnose, 10% stepover. Applied blue acrylic paint, hand sanded, wirebrushed. Applied sealer, black glaze, 2 finish coats. Photo shows only the acrylic paint, final overall look very aged, rustic. The client loved it...got lucky :D

Thank you James. I have a lot to learn still...not enough hours in the day...
