actually no, I'm not that talented haha. I just used a paintbrush. It gave it a more weathered look and the wood a wood texture compared to the flat finish an airbrush would make I'm assuming.



And honestly, all it takes is practice.. this was my first time using gumpaste, and my fondant skills are a little lacking, so I just keep making cakes for everything to practice. If you practice you will be amazing one day!
