Fine looking carvings. I think you and Mac should display them at the plugfest coming up soon. :pop: :buds:

CapeSam (and MAC) that is really neat stuff. I've been contemplating trying the same for years, though the painting part scares me. You guys may have just shamed me into it. I have a book of fish patterns (including a tuna if you're interested CS). I'll try to remember to bring it to the plugfest.

I would be real interested in seeing that book. Then I'll know what to look for. It is hard to find decent pictures to go by. I did mine from a copy of a print. A pattern book sounds really cool.

A chicken and an egg are lying in bed when the egg rolls over angerily and lights a cigarrete and says 'well we answered that question"

Nice work .

Blood wood make a great sealer the way it soak's into basswood if only it were a tad more waterproof.......the artist oil's take forever to dry even putting japan drier it...so these may not see the front seat of the truck by the time that roll's around...only time will tell.

As Alwayse Very Artistic Capsams. You should have a studio on the East side of Providence where middle aged women pay a lot of money for stuff like that!!! pretty :)

I mean that in the nicest way. You are an artist my friend, not merely a plug builder.
