I am looking for a rough out bust ao a Big Horn Sheep Ram. So far I have not been able to chase on down. Plenty of full body Rams, but thats not what I am looking for. Any ideas where I might look?

Thanks ........... Crabman

Rossiter Roughouts?

Crabman and Hi Ho,
I've heard that Rossiter's RoughOuts in Wichita, KS is for sale. If you can't catch them, you can go direct to the artist who created their ram bust and whole-body ram: Debbe Edwards in Miami, OK. She sells her own roughouts, too. If you need phone numbers and/or addresses, let me know. I've done both of her ram roughouts and I love them.

Ok, I found their info:

Debbe can be reached at 918) 542-9627. If she's gone or is out in the shop, she usually has the answering machine on.

Rossiters are at 1440 S Santa Fe Street, Wichita, KS 67211 and their phone is 316) 941-4443.

That's the last I had on both. There's an excellent reference book on bighorn sheep if you need that--just holler and I'll look it up, too.

Thanks for the tip.
I have an email in to Debbe Edwards but have not heard from her. and Rossiter has blanks for full body Big Horn Sheep, but I am looking for a Ram bust. I guess I will keep looking.

Hey crabman, lots of rough looking Big Horn sheep out in in the Colorado Rockies, I dont think you can chase one down thou, thier pretty fast. Anyways why not cut your own blank! There is a great book titled Drawing America"s Wildlife by Doug Lindstrand here you will find excellent sketches of the magnificent Big Horn Sheep. Draw or trace,copy to desired size,transfer pattern to block, cut,happy carving!

Wood Carvers Supply has a Big Horn sheep pattern. I haven't seen it, but they list it in their catalogue at
