All that paint finally dried so here is the carving all finished. If you compare the photos here with those on the “First Look” post you’ll note that the telegraph pole was lengthened quite a bit. I did this because the first pole was just too short. It would have made the carving a little easier to handle or set on a shelf but to keep it realistic the change just had to be made.

The little birds on the wire worked out real well. Hopefully you can see the little lady bug I added on top of the pole. I made that out of just a small drop of epoxy painted orange with a few black dots. Everyone who has seen this piece thinks that is the most interesting part. Funny….you spend all that time on something and they go for the smallest little bug.
