    Default A few of my carvings

    Just thought I'd share a few pieces of my work with some fellow woodcarvers. Hope you like 'em

    This is my biggest piece, with the wingspan ranging almost 6 feet. I'm really proud of this one!

    I reckon those eagles are stuffed ("taxidermy" not "****ed"). Seriously, seriously good work

    Everything is so life-like.

    Especially the Quail.

    Really great work.

    Most excellent Dan. What timber do you generally use? Is the large eagle all carved out of one solid piece? Do you carve them all by hand, or use some power carving tools as well? How do you hold the work while carving?

    Do I have any more questions? Absolutely!
