Default Charlie Red Horse...Ready for the Paint Table

Here's Charlie...fresh from the carving station. I think he turned out great and should be a winner for sure once he's painted. There are a few more photos on the Blog along with a little more description. I used a propane torch to burn off the fuzzy residue from stoning the upper part of the robe. That technique works great but be careful....your carving can turn into a cinder real quick. As always, comments welcome and appreciated.
