Here is a pic of my latest project, a coat rack for my pastor's office. I used walnut, mahagony and aspen. Finished with Deft spray. One coat of sealer, then several coats of satin followed by a coat of semi-gloss.
WOW!!! That's as professionally done as one could ever hope for. The sentiment and message behind it is commendable as well. Good on 'ya Chris!!! ~Andy

It was a fun project to do and I have several more designs in mind with different types of woods.
As to whether the dove is segmented or intarsia, I guess the areas where the grain runs the same direction and I cut one block and then cut that into pieces would be segmented and the areas where the grain runs different directions would be intarsia. I don't usually think of my project as divided into areas though, the project as a whole would be intarsia because different grain directions, especially cut from different woods, constitutes intarsia, at least according to my understanding. Maybe the dove has a split personality.

Greetings from central Indiana. Most of the good stuff I know about scrolling, I learned here. The rest was from fixing mistakes or doing stuff again because I didn't pay attention to what I read here.
So, ask your questions and post your photos.
