I've been working on this one for quite sometime and finally put the finishing touches on it today. I had thought all that black would just overpower the figure but I think it looks pretty good. I did do a little dry brushing to bring out the details and wrinkles a little. I wish I could have done a better job on the whip but other than actually trying to weave one that would be in scale would have just been impossible, especially considering the shape of my sight. He stands about 12" high with the base. Maybe someday I'll do his side-kick Fuzzy to complete the duo but it will have to wait till another day.
More photos in the Gallery and your comments are appreciated as always.

You caught the essence of that B-Western film star really good. Great carving Lynn.
