Thank you Kiwican and a safe New Years eve to you and yours. Joe

Now this was fun tooling exercise. The painting was good except for the fish. White and black control was the problem. Did use metallic Silver to tame the white down.

Things do not look pretty half way through. At least mine does not. Little bit of paint and about 6 beers after finished and everyone maybe happy.

YinTx, Those are just what is needed for a lot of people in these times. It's sure nice to see the smiles When gifting them. Have a safe and joyful Holidays Joe

Your welcome. Be safe. It's the only way to approach things. Same to yo and yours.

I hope this brings back memories that some have the happy opportunity to do in one way or the other.

Glad it did. don't always have to do the same-same.

A little fun with images. Yes, the Kid is from Lutz. That's what we do !!!!

Had trouble with the colts head. From afar it's ok

Bright eyes

He has style.

Still need to clean the picture up a bit. My wife said I was full of Hot Air !! Guess I Am.

Well it's almost over here. The leaves have not turned to brown yet-forget reds and yellows. This was done for the lazy summer days around here.

Thank You Northmount.

Best way i know to rebuild the skill set.

These are good for resting your skill set.Also great for gifting to friends or family members that like to fish. I have one brother in Law that has a collection of these. And another that use to scuba fish a lot. For him I Did a set of tropical saltwater fish he says maintaining them is cheaper than live ones in a tank?

Thanks, It is almost finished. i thought it was. Just figured out that you have to read stories that you write more than 4 times. Still finding incomplete sentences When redone, I will message it to you.

He is a Ham! If you want a wake upcall, start a story . Youwill wonder how you ever passed and English exam. Something how youcan spell all the cuss words right and the rest wrong.

When he's not sleeping on his back.

It happen I went off the deep end and it's scary . Ii am writing a short story. Our cat Scooter is the main Character. Heres the picture of him and the title.

Thank You Tom.

This was created from 5 images. the beach with driftwood is the background. The redwings was one image moved and resized . ,the two kids and the woman . I don't like seagulls and i love redwings. The clouds was a mistake that was painted off white. repainted them. Another thing I am working to incorporate laying out the tooling on background images that hopefully displays better.

Thing is --- you can't do just one!!!!

Thank you YinTx . The animal that this came off of must have been real tame. The leather did not wiggle at all.

When my tooling gets lazy I go back to these. I do have fun from creating to the finished product.
