Whiskey Jim Gets A Bust Enhancement


That modification to Pancho went so well I thought I'd do the same thing with this reprobate. I fitted him out in some fancy duds considering he's know to play with some reall highrollers. I only wish there was someway I could have also added a gold-banded stogie but he was too far along for that. I also tried a different stand which I think worked out really well. It takes a common bust and elevates it to a much higher level...at least I think it does. It's just a 3" piece of turned walnut on a 3/8" thick material.

  1. It looks like you took the poncho bust pattern and trim it off at the bottum and recarved it? looks great!! just and idea for a highroller is a gold and diamond stick pin in the center of that tie. just a thought!!

  3. He looks great! I may have to try this one after Poncho. I may make the stand look like 2 dice, one sitting on the other and the top one slightly turned but not quite 45 degrees.

  4. I really like the taller stand. It keeps us from looking down on the top quite as much.
