I am currently working on a Judy Gale Roberts pattern of a motorcycle scene.  I have the pieces all cut, except for the frame.  I am trying to decide what wood to utilize for the frame.  Currently, I have used Poplar, Walnut, Beechnut, Aspen, Blue Pine, A little Paduck, and some Cherry.  I am now beginning to shape them.

 

I have available for the frame,  Mahogony, Oak, and Honduran Rosewood.  What do you guys think I should use?

I think a darker wood will bring out the darker colors in your picture. Unless you don't want to bring out the dark colors. I don't think a real dark color would look right though.  Try laying some of your wood nex to the picture & see what it looks like.  Good Luck & nice looking piece too. You do nice work.
