Looks great!
I use this same vector cut at 12" to ensure my x-carve is calibrated - there is so much detail that any missed steps show up eventually. I spray paint them matte black, then dry brush a bright gold over that for highlights.

So after the 10 hour carve I got home from work and flipped it over to cut the keyhole hanging thingys on the back when the bit entered the wood my dewalt 611 puked black crud all over the back of my Aztec calendar, guess the long carve ate my brushes still works but it was a little sick.
Wow… what rpm/speed?!

Found a pic… This was my first real carve on the x-carve. It’s in MDF, cut with a 90 degree Craftsman router bit.

So I finished it with matte black and copper metallic dry brush. It was for a charity auction I’ve gotten request for 3 more from the people running the auction they want them for their homes.

I spray painted it with matte black rattle can paint and then used a copper metallic acrylic paint from a craft store dry brushed it with the grain being careful not to let the bristles go down into the v carve to much , touched up the black area with a sharpie afterwards.
