Default Sea Serpent Treasure Chest

Hi everyone,

Here's a small chest that I wood burned, painted and stained for my nephew for Christmas.

Those droplets falling from his mouth are not blood, (he's only 4), they're water with silver highlights which the camera didn't capture, I really need a better camera for these pictures *S*

Thanks for looking.

Way too cool! He's going to love it! Quite an imagination do four year olds. When my granddaughter is here, you'd swear there was ten kids in the room, she keeps up a running monologue!

Your nephew is going to really enjoy the treasure chest. You are comming up with really creative ideas for your work. Nice job. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

I have ordered a woodburner (Razertip) for myself for Christmas. Guess I will be figuring out how to do work like this real soon!

Hey Greg, I hope you enjoy your Razortip as much as I have mine. Please share any woodburning/pyrography work you create and if I/we can help just post to this forum.

Thanks everyone!



Hey Colin - the dragon is from CorelDraw9 - gotta love those graphic programs when you can't draw to save your life!

Lindy I didnt mean that I seen it before on Corel or in a book. You obviously havent heard the story of my cane hunting trip. If you are wondering it is on a post this August I did called "The Field Trip from Hell". If you read it you will know what I am talking about.
