Cliff, I'm gonna hop on the bandwagon here and tell you the same thing you've just heard all along....make that forehead/hat separation cut and paint that cowpoke! YOU CAN DO IT! You've done a super job on that cowboy, Cliff...and if you can do all that detail, you can do the hat thingy. I HAVE FAITH IN YOU! Great job! Bonnie

Thanks for the encouragement, he now has a forehead. I've decided to carve some buttons for his shirt, drill a hole in his hand for a lassoo and then by golly, he's gonna get painted in the next couple days. I have a couple honey do's first, gotta keep momma happy.

Joy, thanks for the tip on the forehead, my only fear was that I might break the brim off the hat while doing it, but all is well. It will show up more in the finished project so I wont take another pic till it's finished.
