Default Hillbilly carving
This is my 3rd carving and heavily influenced by Gene's Rufus! I'm going to try and create a family for him! LOL! I call him 'Jethro'.

Thanks very much guys for encouraging me! I've just started carving another hillbilly based on the Jack Price book but 3- 1/4" high to match my other pieces.

Somebody's been a productive carver lately. I think you're producing them so fast that you're losing count, though, as I think you've shown us more than 3 carvings at this point :-) Love your hillbilly.
