Popular Post FrankEV Posted November 20, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 A purchased SVG file that required some work to make the pattern scrollable. The Bee is a separate layer applied on top of the cut panel. The cut panel is 5/32” x 12” x 12” solid core Maple Ply affixed to a 1/4" x 12” x 12” BB Ply Backer. The Bee is also 5/32” solid core Maple Ply. Coloring was done using my Air Brush with Artist Acrylic Air Brush Paints. The assembled panel was protected with multiple coats of a Clear Gloss Acrylic. The Frame is 1/3/4” wide Poplar rails finished with Black Lacquer. Made this as a Christmas Gift for my, soon-to-be ,Grand-Daughter-in-law, who, besides being the mother of my Great-Grand-son, is a Bee Keeper. Comments and critiques always welcome.

FrankEV Posted November 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2023 9 hours ago, Joe W. said: Nice! Steve Good has a similar pattern I cut a couple years ago. Now that you mentioned it, I do have his pattern in my files with a title "Honeybee" so it did not register in my scan of my files when I looked for "Bee". When I was looking throug the Website that had all kinds of'"Bee" things I found a couple of images I liked and decided, for the small price, to buy a few. This one sort of jumped out at me because of the rather overly exagerated Bee image. Other than the bridges I had to add between the Honeycomb sections, I also liked the simplicity of the Honeycomb image. I immediately could invision how it would be colored.
