“Here’s the completed head of a figure I really look forward to doing someday. I’ve always admired the Willie & Joe cartoons drawn by Bill Mauldin. I remember my folks had a book of them and I was constantly wearing out the pages. Not sure what this fella will be doing but I will try and put him in a situation that those other two characters always seemed to find themselves in.”
Ok….We’re back to 2024. Below is a finished soldier but not the one pictured above. If you look closely you can see the top of his rifle strapped to his back. Also, there is a video series on carving a different WW2 soldier on my Youtube channel.
Comments welcome.
