The Old Scout - Painted

Got the old Geezer painted up and varnished and I think he looks pretty good.  I'll bet he could tell you some stories!  Kind of shiney on his chest but thats just some glare....doesn't look that way in normal light.  With the base he stands about 10-11 inches tall.

I watched The Mountain Men with Charelton Heston and Brian Keith yesterday so been thinking of doing a Mountain Man.  Been a while since I did one of those.  Still have the Indian woman and child to finish though and there is another large Indian bust and a Buffalo Soldier setting partially finished on the workbench so it will be a while before I can start that.

    Very nice work Lynn. I alway look forward to seeing the painted piece after you post the carving. Your incredible painting talents are equal to your carving talents. Both of which are outstanding!
