The bench is finished. I took this image right after I finished the patina. It always bothers me to do this because in a few days the patina matures to a more even color. Months later it is even more rich looking. But, I usually have to ship them out right away as is the cast with this bench. Fed Ex Freight is on the way to pick it up and deliver it to it's new home in Michigan.

This is a close up of the newspaper the man is holding.
