Default Black Buffalo
Here are some quick shots of a bust I just completed. Turned out pretty good although the eyes are too big I think. He had to go back to the paint table after he was done for some face decoration. Just didn't look right without it. The beading on the shirt looked real neat but now it's 90% covered by the headress! Oh well...Someday maybe he'll take a fall and the head will come off and whoever has him will notice my hidden efforts!

Tony.....Out of my photo files. Anytime I see an something I think might be of interest I clip it out and paste it in one of my notebooks. Have all kinds of notebooks covering just about everything connected to the old west.
