Slowly but surely, fighting through the snow, I finally got him carved out and ready for the paint table. I finished the book yesterday but won't show the inside pages until he's all painted up and finished. Got to keep your attention don't I? He's mounted on a piece of turned sycamore and I still have to add a bottom base as with that outstretched arm he's a little off balance. Anyway, hope you like him so far and your comments are always welcome.
The book is amazing? I can't imagine how you got that so detailed, unles you made it on the computer, then sized it down, printed, and affixed like decopage to the carving. If you hand painted that book...my hat is off to you!!!! I really like the piece, is quite the nice surprise amongst the western characters that are your usual forte. This is a wonderful carving!
ReplyDeleteLynn, the books great BUT I think you should have drop the arm a little bit to show more of the great carving of the face and the glasses.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!....as usual. Can't wait to read the book :)
ReplyDeleteOutstanding carving. I really like your sense of humor. Priceless!
ReplyDeleteLynn, another marvelous carving! Your creativity never ceases to amaze me.
ReplyDeleteRik from New Jersey...WoW. Working as a nurse I really love this. How did you do the face mask and the tied bows, they are wood aren't they. I would love to see a video on this one. Great Job. Rik
