    Default Marine photo in frame

    I blew this photo up to 5'x2' of this badass marine (my son) and made a frame from poplar with cherry stain with a couple of carvings.

    Turned out nice Jack. What kind of wood are the carvings? Thank you and your son and his team for their service.

    It's all poplar. The frame and the carvings. I used cherry stain on the frame and gel stain on the carvings. I wanted a contrast.
