I did a little browsing on some of the carvers web sites recently. I guess some of the ideas stuck in my head while carving this guy. Thought I would post a few pics of Albert. Thanks Arnold for letting me use your shirt pattern.

Dave I really like Albert alot! You obviously put a lot of time and patience into carving this great old cowpoke... How big is he...looks to be around 14" - 18"? Very nicely executed indeed... Thanks for sharing him with us and continued safe carving to you!

Very nice! I like the expression on his face, looks like he's thinking of days gone by.

Mixing the natural and painted items on this cow poke,brought it all together into a great carving. I like it.

Great Job. I really like the light coloring and being able to see the grain in the hat. Nice.
