Members Akers Posted September 24, 2021 Members Report Posted September 24, 2021 First attempt at carving a dog. My daughter was happy with it. Back to more practicing. Quote
CFM Hardrada Posted September 24, 2021 CFM Report Posted September 24, 2021 I wished I were more like you and all my first attempts were successes. Terrific!! Quote
CFM tsunkasapa Posted September 24, 2021 CFM Report Posted September 24, 2021 Very nice. I used to keep a "Dog Log" when I was running my sled team. I never thought of one of those. But training sled dogs doesn't leave much time for anything else. Quote Hoka Hey! Today, tomorrow, next week, what does it matter?
Members Akers Posted September 24, 2021 Author Members Report Posted September 24, 2021 Thanks Hardrada, I wish I had smoothed out my beveling around the head a little more. I thought I had it faded out good until I stained it, then my mistakes showed up. Lol. Oh well, at least it wasn't for a paying customer. Lol Quote

PastorBob Posted September 24, 2021 Report Posted September 24, 2021 Beautiful work. Always fun jumping on here and seeing talents and abilities put to work. Any daughter would be proud of that fine piece of craftsmanship, 'specially since its from Dad. I am sure there will be even more conversations regarding your work between the two of you. Thanks for sharing! Quote In God's Grace, Pastor Bob "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8 www.PastorBobLeather.com YouTube Channel

Quote Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!

Very nice work on the journal Thanks everyone. Hasbeenciwboy, I don't think so, I'll have to ask. The dog loves to retrieve anything you throw, especially tennis balls. Quote

And like @Hardrada said, I wished all my first attempts were as beautiful as this! Quote
