Genes Hillbilly in Florida

[tucker1931]

Thought I'd have some fun with this one, it's one of Genes tutorials on carving a simple hillbilly from a block of wood. He's 6 inches tall and I may have altered him a little. Thanks Gene for being my inspiration I only wish I could get UTUBE on my dang phone line.

With all that new basswood that got dropped off you'll have plenty of blocks of wood to carve out Hillbilly's. He's a fine looking character Cliff.
