Here's My Woodcarving!

My latest carving is this Native war shirt carved out of basswood. The full size is approximately
40" across.
I shot the photos below while I was in progress - it was a very difficult piece.
My techniques are strictly basswood, Dremel and paint and perspiration, nothing special really, just
a determination to make a living!
