Arrowhead

Just as I thought.  Cut the wire too short!  Live and learn. Sometimes, making mistakes is the only way to learn.

Anyway, it isn't terribly bad, just not as good as it could have been.  The rock look isn't too terrible either, but that's just my opinion.  Again, I used Golden brand acrylic paint, Payne's Gray, Burnt Umber,  Red Oxide, Quinacridone Magenta and Interference Red.  The latter gave a little gloss to the finish. Rather than using the finger painting method, I used stencil brushes and daubed the paint onto the faux bone.

I keep telling myself to think ahead and hopefully not make mistakes.  Ha! that'll be the day to remember!
