Garymc, nice carving on the Indian. You got some real good depth in the face, which is'nt always an easy thing to do,..... Now you got me in the mood to carve some bark!

Gary, That's really nice. What's its size? Looks like it was carved on the corner of a piece of wood. Your carving is right up there with the best. Thanks for sharing. Tom H

Thanks for the comments! Tom you are right, it was carvered off a corner, he is 5-1/2"long by 2-3/8" wide and 1-1/4" thick, out of basswood, with acrylic washes and "Feed and Wax".
Tom I need some more bark to carve, gotta order some soon.
