Progress on Amberola 1-A #2, SHELLAC!

Post by MicaMonster »

It has been a while since my last update, primarily because I have been waiting for good weather to brush on shellac, and also because I have been carving small sections of pillar piping for the Amberola!

Here are two pics taken today, with 3 coats of shellac on it. More detailing and color to come, obviously
