Looks fantastic even without any paint.I know I would have been afraid of breaking it off and think I would feel more comfortable with it in a glass case.Great job.

Linda,

Excellent carving! Looking forward to seeing "Broken Feather" painted, although a natural finish would be a winner as well.

Well Done!

Neil

Thanks for the encouragement. I really did enjoy this since I got to do all the carving on it. It was great at the renegade to have someone carve one side of the face to show you how and this was my first try since then to see if I learned how to do it on my own. Granted...the DVD was a great help too!
