Bringing out the hidden accents on my Cuckoo clock

Today is day 6 on the unpainted version and I am showing how I painted tiny pieces of paper and pasted them to the backside of cutouts in the wood. If any part shows, I will paint over the back sides.

This picture shows how those holes appear with the back inserts. My vision is finally coming to life.

To me, it kind of has a Christmas vibe, I don’t know why :thinking:

Because of the green white and red. Got a bit of a christmas tree vibe to it.

Yes, I think maybe that’s why :christmas_tree::joy:

The only reason for the red is because of the hearts and diamonds hidden throughout the puzzle. I was just looking for a woodsy vibe, yet you still have to have blue birds and water, etc. @Wenbare , @Jerry_Boswijk @Liset
