About Me
In my spare time I like to contemplate the efficiency of the use of my spare time. I like chocolate and ponies... chocolate ponies would be nice.

long time no blog
this one is mainly digital, which I dont like so much, I prefer manual painting and drawing, it doesn't feel like work, staring at a computer does. there's some woodgrain layers overlaid instead of the usual textures most people use ....anyhoodles...its called "bad day at the office" that title is temporary.

boxy but good
this is the "Before" picture.
I was thinking about painting the whole thing a solid colour or cover it in some nice patterned paper, but in the end I wanted to keep the nice wood-grain, because otherwise I could have just bought a plastic or MDF box , the wood makes it look more time-honoured or classic (if it weren't for those damned cut-outs).
The whole thing was stained with water-based floor stain, "W" painted with acrylic gold paint, the leafy scrolls with oil paints, then the whole thing varnished with water based glue/varnishy stuff. Would have been good if the backs of the drawers had no finger-hole-style-cutouts I would have turned 'em round and attached some better looking handles. But unfortunately there is cut-outs on both ends. I may have to get one for myself, very useful drawers for craft/scraps and other crap.
