Here is one I wanted to get finished but not painted before the Dayton show so I could hopefully pick up some tips on making realistic fur.

This piece is a little more realistic than my normal caricatures as I wanted to see what my normal carving techniques would look like when applied to that type of figure. I think she looks pretty good. When finished she will have an Elks tooth decorated dress along with the beaded strips which haven’t been burned yet. She stands about 17 to 18 inches to the tip of her feather. Will also be quite a bit of painting and detail work on her so she should be a pretty striking figure.
Comments welcome.
