| | Bald Eagle-- critique it Here is a 1/4 size American Bald Eagle carved from Tupelo Gum and painted with oils. The dead tree is carved from Basswood and pinned on a piece of Granite which holds it down and takes care of the offset weight.
Don't be shy with your critique, I'm a big boy. |

| | Re: Bald Eagle-- critique it Okay Bob, I'll get some closer pics but it is sold so I will have to wait until I go to Hopkinsville, Ky. to do so. Why don't you just pull it off the board until I can do better? |

| | Re: Bald Eagle-- critique it Ron--I think you did mention about your brother one time but naturally I had forgotten it. Do you ever visit him? If you do maybe we can get together sometime. |
