This carving is my contribution to a challenge I issued over on the Out West Possee Face Book page. With only a week to go I still have a few things that need to be done to wrap things up but he's well on his way to the finish line.
I carved the AK47 that will be attached to his back yesterday at our little carving group and today will make a new base and the sign he'll be holding. The base he's on right now is just a spare I had on hand. Someone mentioned that he looked pretty fragile...believe me he's not. The upraised arm is attached with the shaft of a 4p galvinized nail. Also each leg has a metal rod iserted through up into the body.
Hope you like him so far and your comments are always welcome.
I like him a lot...great expression and well carved. Now carve Gitmo for his home. Good job.
