Default Black Bear and Red Fox
Here are photos of the bear and fox that I am doing for the doors on a five door hutch. I finally decided on the pattern for the deer (a doe trotting along). I'm trying to choose subjects that are solid and not to delicate. I would like for them to last forever without breakage. . A friend of mine said: "just think, a hundred years from now this will be on ANTIQUES ROADSHOW".

John,
Very nice. I would love to be able to see the finished hutch, I imagine it is going to be beautiful.

Safe Carving and God Bless,

Mark
