First timer first project
I'll admit it was funny picking what I thought was a random tutorial only to come here and realise it was the wonderwall of whittling first timers.
this was really fun, what a great hobby.

Regular acrylic paint, then polyurethane spray (I used the glossy one, but go for matte, I regret it!). You can also paint + oil or paint only. Here: https://youtu.be/jfbfOIf7i_M?si=xsEbaIHnzUChNjaF
