| | Re: Only 15 you say??? john,
that feller pointing his finger looks like the old timer i set next to comming back from alaska, that feller could talk even through the inflight meal he didnt mis a lick,
good job on the turned head
you can carve the head seprate on a peg and put it into a hole drilled in the neck,
by carving the body with the shirt collar finished, the peg is hidden in the detail of the collar,
it gives a lot of extra leeway for expression
look on lynns blog under the chuckwagon cook... |
