Looks great James! What kind of finish do you have on him? Would love to see some of your work in person. May have to travel out that way next summer and take a look!

Thanks again to all wo took time to look. Jim Catalpa carvers just like butternut even looks the same as far as grain and color. Blake, I stained him with minwax golden oak to seal him the accented him with some brown dye with an air brush then three coats of pre cat laquer. Look forward to seeing you next summer
