Why not go to the person that has the wolves at the linked site?

Just curious - that seems to be a direct source that's already established.

I did contact James in Late july but due to some family health problems he doesn't do wolf charms at the moment and can't tell me when he would be able to do more.

His work was very much appreciated, and we are quit a few looking for someone to carve wolves for us. I actually need 3 charms but i could easily find 50 and more people looking for some.

You can PM him using the Private Messages function at the top of the right corner of the page. You do need to know his "name" (tnartist05)

Most likely, anyone really interested can reply here. Just give it a bit of time.

The reason I asked about getting them from the person in the link, is because if I was him/her, I'd be a bit upset if someone used my work as an example to be used to get "copies" without permission.

I was invited earlier to give this request a go. I have carved wolves and I have carved small jewlery items, but never together. I tried a couple, but was not satisfyed with the results, and figured it would take too long to learn to perfect them. I'm sure that these nice folks would like a howling wolf, but not at a price that I would have to charge while learning to do them properly. Besides, the ones I tried are a bit larger than what they were looking for, about 1 1/2" overall.

What I looked at wasn't a copy of their recommended "charm", but my own design of what I thought a howling wolf should look like. My Husky Kira stood as a great model, and I thank her for her patience.

I'll stick to ships, bunnies and dragons. I'm good at those!
