    "Norman Bates" 30,5 x 41,5cm, backer board 4mm, Norman 4mm, 'cheap' DIY store ply, done with a #1 blade. Check out the hair. Those are some scaaary long cuts.

    Yes, but it's really hard to find stuff that is barely usable (like 1 sheet out of 10), and it's also risky to use because at 4mm overall thickness the veneer is very thin and likely to break off just for the heck of it. I'm doing a more intricate pic right now, so far the veneer has chipped in seven places. But I make the best of it, as I have no other sources for the wood (and couldn't afford it even if I had).

    This actually doesn't mean "cozy" to me, it's a gift to my sister.

    "Creature from the Black Lagoon" 40 x 67,5cm, backer board 8mm, lagoon 4mm, bottom overlay 4mm, backer board head 4mm, head 4mm, cheap DIY store ply, done with a fretsaw using a #1 blade. The thing is the size of ca. 4 A4 sheets. Everything is done by hand, as I don't have any power tools. I found the original pic at deviantArt, making the patterns required redoing every single line in CorelDraw, which took about 20 hours. Fretsawing is a very slow process, I guess it took about 30 to 50 hours for this one. Some details: the pattern for the head the finished head on it's backer the lagoon and the bottom overlay

    I'm cheating, I use a fretsaw. I started in january '22. These are among my first ones. Nine months later ... Fast forward to the present ... This is 40cm x 67.5 cm and has three layers.
