Hi Everyone! I wanna show off my first stone. Made a ton of rookie mistakes (carved the "body" too thin to engrave an epitaph, so I have no idea what I'm gonna do - not wanting to just paint it on!!), but it was super fun!
I followed Terra's (sorry for the misspell in the title!) painting technique and, I have to say, the dry brushing white really really really had a huge impact! I was going to skip that (thought process: "I just worked really hard to get this dark, aged look... why would I paint white over it?!?!?!?!" - advice: JUST DO IT!).
Anyway, enough yappin'. Here it is...
I'd love some suggestions on the epitaph if you have any. I thought to do the foam letters from Wally world, but they're not a good font... I know some of you will have something amazing to contribute that I haven't thought of!
