Hi Joyce, Thank you for liking my Bird enough to want to make one. You sure can do your thing and I'm sure you will do it Justice . Would like to see it when you finish if you don't mind. Have fun doing it, I did. Merle

Hi Merle, That is such a wonderful piece. Would you mind if I used your eagle and tried to do one for my hubby? I know it won't be as good, but I'd like to give it a go.

Hi Randy, When finding the right Heat Setting on making Lines I use a Skew and if it shows Scorch marks along side of the line it's to Hot. It also depends on the Speed that move the Burner. Thanks for Commenting. Merle

another nice piece Merle. I have never been able to get those clean lines with a burner. I ind up with hot spots. I know it is my heat setting but I have trouble finding that balance between not hot enough and to hot.

Hi Kathy, the Daughters thought the last one was to Bright and this one suted my Youngest so it's hers and it goes with the one she got for Christmas. The Colored Pencils worked out nice ,you must use Spray Poly U and not Wipe On, I used Wipe On once and it wiped most of the Color off. Thanks Kathy for your Encouraging Words. Merle

This is really fine work Merle. It's clean and crisp.
I completely agree with the spray on finish when using these types of coloured crayons. When I first used them years ago I used wipe on poly and remember it well. What a mess it was.
Lesson learned. Lol

Thanks for the great info Kathy! I have some Bruynzeel colored pencils made in Holland that I bought over 20 years ago but I don't know what their composition is. I will try to find it online.

You Welcome, Nomad (Terry) Maybe you can research the colored pencils you have they just might be wax and oil based.
