Default Cowboy Roping
This little cowboy is roping a set of horns, hes not ready to attach a bull on them yet. Basswood, acrylic paints, clear coated. Comments or suggestion welcome. Sorry about the blur camera acting up.

That is a very nice scene. Bt adding the fence and water trough, you enhanced the visual appeal, and having him roping the horns is a great touch. It is well carved and really tells a story. Keep up the good work.

Very neat. Your carving is worth a much better photo. It's a little fuzzy on my computer.
