Hick's new love is ready to be clear-coated with polyurethane! I used the colored pencils to fill in the portions as he instructed. It looks unfinished to me, but I suppose it meets Hick's conditions of "standing out more" with a bit of color.
I don't know why the lettering shows an orange hue. It must be something to do with my phone camera. In real life, there is no orange at all in the lettering, and I certainly did not use the colored pencil there. What you may not realize, and I did not know until last night, was that the other side of the sign is also engraved like this! So... there are two rifles and knives on this side, and also two rifles and knives on the opposite side of the board.
For now, I am awaiting my chastisement or congratulations when Hick gets home to critique my efforts. Oh, come on! We all know that only one of those pronouncements will be forthcoming...
