This was carved from a Gary Falin roughout. Liberties taken from his original. The wood was very hard, probably an old roughout.

That's a good looking bulldog. You gave him lots of character. The carving and painting are well done.

For a ruff and tumble guy, he has a very charming look! Nice job.

Thanks everyone for looking and the nice coments! This was one of those carvings that I never could get connected with i.e. don't really enjoy carving it. But, my grandson wanted it so had to finish the job!
