Top hat

[uvawyo]

I used Marv Kaisersatt\'s book as a go by on this one. he is bass wood 1.75 x 1.75 x 7.5. I painted him with danish oil then acrylics then another coat of danish oil. He is not crazy looking enough to be the mad hatter and too happy for an undertaker. Maybe a banker about to foreclose on a poor widow woman.

Re: Top hat

Nice work Herb. The finish is great. I like that natural look with splashes of color. Might make a good door to door salesman.

My thoughts exactly Carver Eric. When I saw this little guy that was the first impression that crossed my mind. In any event, Herb he\'s a stunner fer sure.
