Put the finishing touches on this fella today. I must say that he turned out really well. I only had to epoxy the wire rope into his right hand as it fit just perfect in his left. I was hoping for that as when people touch it, even though you tell them not too, they do and that finger would break if there was glue involved. This way the rope will just slip out of the space between the two fingers.

I have no doubt that this is a winner as the figure is doing something other than just standing there. There's action is just about anywhere you look.

Lots of photos in the Gallery.
Great job, Lynn! That is exactly the kind of carving I am striving to do! Ya got movement everywhere, combined with the excellent carving and miniscule details you seem to incorporate everywhere, I think ya got a winner for sure! Like the painting with the implied different textures. Thanks for sharing you expertise so that some of us not so talented, don't have to try to reinvent the wheel!
