Default couple of new cowboys

Here are the last couple of cowboys that I have finished, One bottle stopper, and the other just on a base. About 4 inches tall, and painted with acrylics.

Thanks for taking a look. Tom

I like the way you do hair. Makes it look very natural. I'll have to keep trying.
