Sanded wood bare. Then i kinda followed grain or made my own by putting random coats of walnut stain. Some were done 2 coats, some 5 coats and some 7 coats, in order to give different shades. The greyish areas were done with an ebonizing solution made from steel wool and vinegar. then came back with a pen using india ink.Outlining some of the grain and just doing some pen/ink style that I usually do on paper or watercolor board. I first outline and then add random texture type lines. Finally finished with about 10 coats of tru-oil. Was my first mixing of my artwork and wood finishing (I do alot of pen and ink artwork on different mediums). I was pumped about the outcome. Thank you for the compliments!

Nice work guys!
Where do you by the 4oz bottles from?

I get all my supply from midwayusa.com just because the shipping is extremely quick, you can't get as many colors as you can directly from lauer weaponry but like I said I like the fast shipping and midway so far has had every color I needed
