Looking real nice to me, especially like the way you folded over the ears, looks real. Bill

You captured the natural motion very nicely. I need to work on that

What a great itchy dog!
When you post pictures of it again, I sure would like to see another angle. You've really made him look like he could finish scratching and take a big sigh and plop down in a heap.

Bruce,
How do you like working with elm?

[bghebert]

thanks, elm is not real good for detaills, it don't sand very well when wet. It's a tree that is being cut down around here due to the Dutch elm disease. they grow to a good size and I can get plenty of it.

Great job! I like the finish but mostly the way you've got him slouching with one leg bone cocked up high.
