Default Stretching His Rope-Completed
I finally completed painting this figure this morning. He turned out real nice I think. Overall, he's one of the best I've done. There are a lot more photos on my blog along with a description on how to make the Conchos.

Lynn,
A very well done piece. And yep I agree one of your best. I love the detail would you mind showing the back? The frontal expession is great but I would like to see the detail of the hat. It looks wafer thin.

Thanks
Ash
