Fly Fishing Wall Clock

Gave another wall clock a shot with that Ambrosia Maple. I've made quite a few fly fishing clocks now, but this is the first wall clock.It's 10” by 10”Not sure how I feel about this one… feels muted. Notwithstanding, I often hear on here that less is more, so I held off on any embellishments. I suppose it does have the right look for someone's rustic fishing cabin.Did try a couple new things:I included pictures of the corners. I think I'm getting adept at extending the grain patterns into the next piece using pencil and touch-up markers.This fly rod is probably my favorite. I used touch-up markers to make the dowel piece look like cork.The fish is new too. I made it to look like a rainbow trout and also got inspired to try the splashes around it.Because it looks nice and received compliments previously, I added dark outside trim.The dark brown pieces on either side of the clock face echo the dark brown of the trim. They also serve to hide the edges of clock movement.Thanks for looking.Oh, and this makes my 30th clock!
