Blue Morpho like a "prototipe model"

[Wreck]

just to show you how looks a shellack/oil/beeswax finish,as it was a thread few weeks ago but couldn`t find those photos(my first stages of finishes ),well as you can see pictures are not something, but as it that was taken by a friend of mine, you know just for fun they looks ok, and no backside photos . This is a "Blue morpho" modell and it´s in its standard shape,in a 2/3weeks comes a blue morpho singlecut,..yeah I know it`a bass forum but anyway,,hope you like it,,greetings

wow, very nice. can you describe your application method?

I tried oil finishes a few years back, but the results were less than satisfactory. This kind of oil finish I could definetely try again.

first mix oil and beeswax and that mixture use as a lubricant for applying shellack(french pollish) that´s why no glossy shine, or mix those three components in a way you like the best and try it on the peece of wood that is the same as one you`ll make an instrument of,
