Originally published on Wednesday, January 27, 2010 From the color of that nose it looks like old Whiskey has been sipping a little to much of his samples. Either that or he’s hit every saloon in town.-I’m going to have to do a full figure of this fella. Give him some plaid pants, some mule-eared boots…

Favorite Movies of the Old West
Originally published on Sunday, January 24, 2010 I was recently ask what my favorite top 10 western movies are. I really can’t tell you cause I haven’t seen them all yet. Probably never will as there are just too many of them. One thing I will tell you is that not enough credit is given to…
Whiskey Jim

If you’re ever travelling through Rapid City, South Dakota, make sure you take the time to visit this store. You can bet we do. I buy a lot of my Native American craft items here that I use on my carvings but the best part is to just wander around checking out the wonderful native…

Tex
Originally published on December 3, 2009 I finally got old Tex over to the paint table for a little makeup. I really like this figure and some of you might recognize him if you happened to stop by our table at the Dayton show. I had his head and hat finished but completed the body Saturday…

Originally posted on Tuesday, November 10, 2009 This is the project I’m taking along to the show in Dayton to hopefully complete but also to use in explaining the various techniques I used in making the videos should someone happen by ande ask a question. I haven’t glued anything together yet so it can be…
