Lucky

Project by Buckskin posted 822 days ago 412 views 0 times favorited 13 comments Add to Favorites Watch

This is ‘Lucky’. He is so named because while carving dimensional framing lumber I have learned you face certain challenges. Anyway poor Lucky here almost lost all of his right hind leg. He will be tender footed from here on out for certain.

This is another project from “First Projects for Woodcarvers.” Maybe one day I will have something up here of the caliber of CarverRog or Dick Cain. One can only hope with lots of practice.

Enjoy!

Cute little dog! I was going to ask you if it was some sort of exotic african dark wood but you said it’s dimensional framing lumber? So… is it stained black then?

Jojo, it is painted gray/black with Apple Barrel Gloss Acrylic Paint or basic arts and crafts paint if you will.

Thank you Buckskin. Isn’t it nice how a humple piece of framing timber can change with some attention? I love wood’s so many faces.

Cute little guy, that’s one thing about a little project like this you don’t need a large lumber storage shed.
Keep on chiseling, your doing fine.

Dogs are to much work :) you have to walk them and clean up after them and they bark all the time, but he is cute :)
