Well, I put his watch in his vest pocket so he’s ready for his debut! I really like this one. As I mentioned earlier, he’s about 16″ tall without the base so you can’t miss him. Also, using an old style shirt front instead of the usual neckerchief really takes him in a completely different direction than my normal cowboy figures. I could have made him a lot more rough and dirty looking but I think a point is reached where such things start to detract from the figure as much as they add to it. I did put a dribble of tobacco juice on his dicky so that should be enough.

I’ve used my Turkey Brand flour sack before and as it’s always been a crowd pleasure thought I’d do it again. It’s all done freehand with a square tipped brush for the lettering and just a small brush for the turkey.
