Default Cowboy

My first attempt at a small cowboy. It is loosely based on Dave Stetsons "Little Hombre". Critiques are more than welcome. I for sure need to figure out how to make a hat I know and am sure there is much else to learn from on this.

Good try Juhani .. Leave a little more on the top of the hat where it sticks above the brim .. Also let the brim extend out ward more over the ears.. you can get a good idea by looking at other carvers cowboys on this web .. Keep trying .. your get there ...
