Default Miniature Bald eagle ( Finished! )

Well I finished the carving finally. Here are the finished picture's hope you like them. It was a challenge because of its size ( 10" long from wing tip to wing tip). The little eagle chick was fun also. Happy Carving! Bird carver

Very impressive. I'm envious. You've provided me the inspiration to try something like that.

Good job.

VERY NICE CARVING! I just finished a pelican and don't know whether to put a "protective" coating on it, what do you suggest. I'm just getting back into it and had learned with oil paint, now I'm using acrylics.

Hey Bob, I always use a protective coating on all my carving's. With the amount of work done for each piece it is like a having a protection coverage on the carvings. I would really like to see your pelican when you have the chance. Bird carver.

Nice Carving.
Carving a bird in flight requires a lot of time must be done top & bottom like carving several birds.Great carving.
Gordo.
