Default Young Coon
I caved this little coon yesterday.Hes 7/8 X 2 1/4 inches.Hes painted,I thought about burning his fur on like Ive seen some carvings burned on here but I didnt have enough matches!

Just thought Id share this young coon on board.

Your thoughts are more than welcome.Thks' Forrest
