    I'm impressed that you have captured the essence of a swaggy's life in the the fascial expression and the glance of the eyes, that is impressive
    The person who never made a mistake never made anything

    Cheers

    bobman: The swagman is wonderful.

    My first reaction was one of frustration = Where is the rest of him? I need to see all of him, standing against a wall in some room.

    I realize that you've got no patterns for a dressed body but you certainly have a good sense for putting the portrait together.

    Google scrapartoz who works in scrap metal. Maybe some ideas?

    A wonderful piece of work Sire!!!

    The expressive eyes and the selection of timbers are impressive features indeed.

    Default Swaggy Intarsia

    G'day Bob, I only just found your latest project, & I have to say Intarsia is definitely your forte. As usual extremely well done. I thought you may like to see my version which I made a couple of year's ago. My bloke was a non smoker & I hope I am not intruding on your post. Regard's Jim.
