Wood is cherry. Size is 350x320x27mm. Time was 3+6hrs. Finish bit was 1.5mm.
There was also about 2 hrs of additional clean up once of the table before staining.
I plan to send this on for paint.

I have been looking for a USA Eagle Flag type model and really like this one. Where did you get it?

Beautiful outcome already . What I don’t understand is why people use a quality wood such as Cherry if they plan to paint over it . Isn’t there a less expensive option for material, or is cherry necessary for fine details?

This is a great piece and feel it looks fine the way it is.
I agree not putting heavy paint on a carve. I use watered down acrylic as a stain to let the natural wood grain and color show through.

I have tried many types of wood. Soft woods like pine just didn't give the results I wanted. If the design is intricate I would see chipping. The edges are just not sharp and have lots of fuzz. I prefer to use cherry, red cedar, walnut and others. I get fine detail, smooth finish and minimal post prep work.
When I send a piece out to be painted I give it a stained finish. Then the artist has the option to leave some areas unpainted.

I kind of figured so . Unfortunately Cherry is costly here
