A friend of mine has a brother and he is a retired Marine !!!

So he wanted a birthday present for him....working on a shadow box, ( 20X16 )...added an American flag as backround ....now this leather carving goes in, will be attached with prominent brass bolts and as finishing touch the unfinished circle in the leather picture on the bottom will get a Marine corps metal emblem in red, blue and gold !!

A thank you to him for his services and a thank you to all of you served this beautiful country...

Awesome!

I could never do that, never could get the hang of carving. And thanks for the sentiments for us Vets. I'm sure he will be blown away when he sees what you've done.

Thank ya all for the nice words.....used Fiebings Tan antique paste....wondering if it came out to orangeish looking....next one in this style will be Fiebings med brown paste...

I love to figure carve....all comes to live when the light shines on it at the right angle....
