Calvary Soldier

[Ron Davidson]

I have been putting this one off on posting. It needs something but I can't tell what. Let me know what you think it needs.

Ron! wow awesome.

Ok since you gave him that hat, I would suggest 2 things.

suspenders and a yellow bandana. He is in the style of Custer cavalry at the big horn , so out side of an arrow sticking through him ... he is really good!

Nice, Ron! Does he have eyelashes? Maybe that's what's missing.

Good work Ron. Echoing Ash, he needs something to put him in the Cavalry. Otherwise, he's just a guy in a blue shirt with a hat. As his shirt has no collar, and there is not enough wood left to give him a neckerchief, It would be hard to add anything to him at this stage to get the result you might want. If it was up to me I would chalk it up to the experienced gained and start a new one. Hope this isn't being too critical.

[Ron Davidson]

I will see if there is anything I can do with his collar. If not I have nothing to loose. I don't think you were to critical. I asked for opinion's. The blus paint came in handy for covering up some blood stains. I had alot of trouble with the wood wanting to splinter out on this one. Back to the drawing board.

Ron ,
He's cavalry no need to cover up blood stains !

More realism !

Ron I know exactly what he needs! He needs to be sitting on my shelf so this beginner can have something to aspire to!!!

Add the neckerchief and leave the blood.

Speaking of blood, one of you seasoned and procrastinatin' carver's needs to carve this man a "Purple Heart!" Tradition in our club. Simple heart carved out of purple heart on a ribbon for those who shed blood. Sounds like Ron earned his on this guy!

This old lady will be pushing up daisies before I reach your level Ron. My opinion's probably not worth a bucket of rocks, I impress easily. But hey, if you're ever building a firepit my rocks may come in handy Ice Cream !
