Mark Akers little shelf sitter. Issue #94

[Tom Ellis]

I just had to give this little fella a try. Mark does such a good job on his cowboys. Am pleased with how he came out. The eyes were the biggest challenge, going by the instructions. Reminds me of a little cowboy song. Put it to your own music. 56C81E70-BF3C-42BE-B2DE-982984E633D7.jpeg 311B4CF7-81B0-416B-9380-38BD5A6EC2E9.jpeg 311B4CF7-81B0-416B-9380-38BD5A6EC2E9.jpeg

Oh I love my horse, and I love my dog,
and I love my cows too, and I want to marry you,

but my wife wont let me.

This project turned out superb, the detail and paint are surly top notch.

[Curly Early]

Top Notch--I agree, really did a good job on him

[Tom Ellis]

Thank Joe, and Curly, Now you have to sing me a little song.

Dry brushed painting? Great carving work, Tom.

[Merle Rice]

Hi Tom , When I say it in WCI I thought you would be doing him . A good Addition to your Shelf . Good Job . Merle

[joepaulbutler]

Tom, believe me, you don't want to hear me sing

[Tom Ellis]

Thanks for looking Bill.

Merle, I am running out of shelf space. But I just keep piling them up.

Joe, You just have to get the words right.

Tom Ellis Most excellent rendition. I Like how you made it your own.

[Eddy-Smiles]

According to David Allan Coe it ain't a perfect country song unless it mentions "Mama, trains, trucks, prison, and getting drunk". However, nice job!

Good Job, Tom!

[toycarver]

Tom, great job! You always have the best paint and finish on your expertly carved pieces. I think you need some help from Rodster on your song though.

[Tom Ellis]

Thanks Jersey Girl,

Eddy, does it count if you are drunk when you sang the song???

Thanks Herb, for stopping by.

Thanks Kris, I always think of Rodster when I am looking for words.

Thanks all, Tom

Tom, excellent job, very well done, makes it all worth the time when I see a carver turn out a excellent carving from one of my patterns, very nice.

[Tom Ellis]

Thank you Mark, It was a joy to see your carving on the front of the issue. It was a fun carve.
