Excellent work. I like the attention to detail. Good choice on the typeface. Can you describe the finishing process?

Wow thats well done,
Re: Harry Potter mirror of Erised
I used MDF for the frame. Component pieces of trim were made on the cnc and then assembled.
Finished with Annie Sloan black chalk paint, followed by gold gilding wax, and then clear wax.

Almost all in vCarve. It is a buildup of components designed in vCarve that were each done on the cnc as separate pieces. I used sketchup to make a couple moulding shapes, imported them as stl and then added the dots and vcarved lines projected onto the surface.
