Gus

You're probably sick of looking at Batman and want to get back to the really important stuff like Gus from Lonesome Dove. This guy has been staring at me every day for the past two months so I thought I'd better finish him before he slams my head into the bartop like he did that sassy barkeep. I had hoped to do him as a complete figure but just couldn't get that interested. Maybe someday. Anyway, hope you like him. More photos in the Gallery section.

    Lynn, another wonderful job! I too think the colors are excellent. What did you use for photographic refeerence material or did you carve from memory?

    Ron. I bought the video and just made notes off of that. Also, you can find all kinds of reference material on the net. I guess Woodrow is next!!

    Thanks for your note.
