The statue of the mouse (from The Gruffalo fame) is less than two years old. The wood has weathered well so far, as has the yellow coat of paint but a bit of photographic weathering deepens the cracks and fissures. Photoscape has an antique photo filter to round off the look.

This metal and wood sculpture of a warrior has been weathered by rain and wind and sun and given a dark vignette around the outside to complete the picture.

This sun, again enhanced with an antique photo filter from photoscape and artificial back lighting, looks a lot more weathered now.

Finally, a black panther made of metal and covered in rust, has been contrast heightened and backlit and scratched.
