Foggy I really like it. Heck reminds me of when I used to have to put in hay. I would come home black as night from the hay chaff and dirt. So he looks like he ought too after a long day breakin horses.

He looks good to me. You could cover his face with several washes of skintone paint but I don't think he would look as good.

I've seen cowboys every bit that dark after following a herd of cattle on a dry dusty day.

Thanks all for the kind remarks. I have been reviewing some of your carvings and I have reached the conclusion that this site is home to some of the finest talent a guy could hope to encounter. Thanks for being inspiring.
