I think you are going to end up with a Piece that you are going to like. Great Detailing. Merle

[Donsexton]

That is a nice clean carving well done

[frankj]

Thanks all for the positive comments. Yep, I'm happy with the progress plus my Grandson thinks it's "really cool".

FWIW: The wood is easy carving Poplar, not as pretty as others but much easier carving.

Take care.

Finally finished the little rascal. Stained it reddish brown after a sealer coat of dewaxed shellac. Then painted the background a light brown with just a touch of red mixed in and a final coat of BLO.
