Cheyenne Dog Soldier - First Feathers In Place

I finished the shield and lance and have started with the feathers.  Could only due one roll before the guy started to frighten me so I'm taking a break!  I will say that this fella is really starting to look impressive.  Can't wait till all the feathers are in place and are painted black.  Wow!   Hope you like him so far cause I sure do.

  2. Looking Dy-no-mite, as usual! Are you drilling one hole for each feather that is inserted?

  6. He gets better every post. There are going to be a lot of naked eagles around Jay by the time you get that headdress covered, but he will be impressive for sure.
