doing another large intarsia ,this one will be on fish caught by trawlers based out of lakes entrance . the john dory will be the main actor and rest of the scene will be fish ,weed, coral ,shells etc around him .the rest of the desighn hasnt been drawn up yet . wood used so far is robinia or black locust for the body vic ash between the fins and southern mahogany in the gills

So far it looks like it's going to be a great project, so I'm looking forward to seeing the WIP. :)

If the John Dory is an indication of what's to come then I'm really looking forward to the finished work!:):):)

Like the others said , it looks great so far.

If the fins are any indication of what's to come..... it's going to be awesome!
I love that you are showing your progress step by step .... designing your own, you're a real artist.

really looks great, the fins are amassing, You must have the patience of Job:2tsup:

[mongrell]

most of the sanding done , no finish yet and gonna have to do the tailfin again as i broke it . it looked a bit dodgey anyway so make it bigger i think. the eyeball is osage orange thanks to kamberge and any black will be ancient mahogany

[keju]

Think I'd cry if I broke something after doing all that work!
Can't wait to see this with finish on.... have a feeling the colours and grain will really pop then
