Default Cigar Store Indian

Hi Y'all.
Not long ago I finished up a roughout of a cigar store indian that I had sitting in a corner for 10 years. Wood was a little tough but I finally found a subject that would work with it. As you can see, I changed it up just a bit and made it into something slightly different from what it was intended to be, a cigar store indian ;O). It's titled "Ladies Night, Free Beer" Had fun with this one!
Enjoy,
Jim OH

Thumbs up Re: Cigar Store Indian

Jim .. Once again .. another winner .. The subject is clear .. the carving is great and the painting is a 10.0 ...

Jim .. Your humor really shows through in this piece and once again .. you give it your own special touch to make it wonderful ...

Great job Jim with a even greater theme of humor ..

Gene

jim,


good work, it is always cool to see something different come from a roughout that was suppose to be something else.
