Default Wizard and Witch Ear Rings

Well, well. I finally got them done and painted up. I really wanted to use a stain to colorize these, but I had difficulties with bleed through at transitions. So, it was back to acrylics and clear gloss lacquer for finish.

My rough stock was 1/2" x 1/2" x 2" Pine. For tools I used pocket knives, X-acto knife and V tool.

I hope you Enjoy and your comments are certainly welcome.
