I like this one a lot more. I assume you are using the string method to paint the iridescent paint, something I was intending to try.

Thank you Neil and Peter.
Yes Neil it was done with the string method, this is my first attempt. I think that a taller turning would have been better for the full effect but I did manage to get it in.
Yes Peter I have been trying to get a number of ideas done before next months woodturning clubs meeting as I have been asked to give a talk on different decorating methods as well as show the types of paints and mediums that I use. This is the reason for no work on the Monmouthshire waggon. Hopefully be back onto it soon

That is nice Derek. Agreed a taller form will create a larger canvas for more opportunities.

Looks like a cup of cappuccino. A very unique piece and an eye catcher.

First of all I would like to apologise to those that replied to this piece and I did not answer to or acknowledge.
An update on this piece. I could not say anything until now but as it is in print I can now mention it.
This piece is now a feature in the "Woodturning" magazine as well as another piece in a separate section called from the forum (Woodworkers Institute forums)
