Maple Sap Bucket Cherry Lidded Box

I really like this. It almost looks like it's made of foam with the lid on. Or fake. My brain has a hard time understanding what medium it is without seeing the previous pic. I really like it.
What kind of paint did you use if you don't mind me asking?

The wood was first textured with a wood burning hand piece, a flat shader that I moved around on the surface in a circular motion. That gave me soft undulating surface. The silver was heavy body acrylic paint applied using the dry brush painting method. Those two methods in combination gave me that hammered look on the bucket. The maple leaf was hand painted using red heavy body acrylic paint.
