Another experiment that went wrong but the wife liked it so I completed it. As you can see the paint shrank back leaving what appears to be cracks. Somehow the more I look at it the more I like it. It is 10 1/2" X 2" and I believe it is lime.

Do you really like the paint job be honest guys

Derek the vrustic appearances coupled with real class give me the impression of a masterpiece in colour application. Just love this turning and painting.
