Core Techniques for Structural Mimicry

This is where the transformation events. The following techniques are sequered to build maximum dem depth and realism.

Stage One: Substrate Preparation andSealing

Poor surface preparation result a poor result. For mimicking exotic woods, accesing a glass- smooth surface is often required, especially for simulating species like ebony or satinwood. Sand progressively the grits up to 220- grit. Never sand abova 220- grit for dye work, as burnishing thee wood will prevent the stain from intrating evenly. Of to.
