Thanks Rich I will bring mine to the meeting if I don't forget :<). It won't be painted yet--not enough time and too far down the paint list.
The burning really changed the texture/look of the carving. My wife likes it the way it is with out painting but I will paint it soon.
Thanks for the nice comments they are what keep me going :<).

Cool looking animal. Great detail. Desiree Hajny must be a great instructor but your work also shows carving talent. Good luck with the burning and please post photo's when completd.

TERRY, Man oh man, that is beauitful. I agree with your wife, don't paint it. There are times when paint can make or break a piece . It is just to wonderful like it is. Say it sure would look good in my western collection, he he.

I really like that! Just curious, how much power carving experience would a person need before they jump into one of her classes?

I agree with your wife, it is finished as is. Beautiful work.

Kris no power carving experience needed in the class I took. Some folks did use a bit of power but mine was all by hand. I am going to guess that she may have some classes that are power carving or mixed methods also. Probably best to check before signing up.
Thank you all for the comments they are appreciated and have been what kept me going on this one.
