Where are all the bird carvers???

[falconer]

Just wondering if there were any bird carvers on this forum. If there are what do you like to carve, songbirds, birds of prey or waterfowl? Come on you guys sound off!!!Head Bange

Falconer, I would give my eye teeth (now thats a funny one if you read my post in Off topic about a week ago) to be able to do birds. As good as you or Lori though, not just do them. I would be into birds of prey and waterfowl. Also unusual, exotic birds. Plenty of study models around here for ducks & geese. I happen to have two geese in my backyard too.

I carve birds. I'll see if I can get my son to scan in a couple of pictures in the morning. My bid deal is musculature and feather detail. I'm a severe realist with critters, carved or engraved.

Nancy, I think you could do them. It's really no different in some ways than carving a santa. With this new thread I thought I'd stir things up a bit or that was my intention anyway. Cowboy

Ok.......... Now that you've got things stirred up........... Where are the Martinis??Mobster

Just seemed that it was alittle to quite on the forum. I always like to go to the California Carvers Guild shows every year cause I"ve made a lot of good friends. I call them boot carvers and they call me powerhead we always have a lot of fun at those shows. By the way wish I had a martini!!! I love you guys your the greatest!!!!!! Come on bird carvers, you can come out of the woodwork now!!!!

Not being sarcastic, but in the "Animal and Bird Carving" forum.


Well, I suppose I am being sarcastic, but in a fun kind of way.....

We are around. Would like to meet some bird carvers in the West Virginia Area.

I have a chickadee half done that I should really try to finish sometime here in the near future. Been fiddling with leaves and eyes and noses and all sorts of little practice things. Learning how to use my beginners set that i bought from little shavers. The chickadee is only the second one that i have done but it is looking so much better than the first at the moment it has me a little excited which makes me wonder why I have let it sit so long. Busy busy busy I guess.
