Did you carve the woman with the CW? If you did, I would love to make one of those for my brother!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

VERY COOL!!!!!!!!!

AMAZING!!!!!

(p.s.) looked at your page and can see that you carved it manually. You know, if you carved things and did a scan of your finished work (within space limits) you could sell those patterns. You really have talent.

Allow me to make the introductions!

JHATCHER meet Mike Leslie the Pattern Vendor AKA Autobodyman and view his patterns at:

Also read his Customer Spotlight at http://www.carvewright.com/cms/leslie

Mikes stuff is just too cool. Wish I had one ounce of his creativity.

He knows I am his number one fan.

Hehehe, I was just 23 minutes late!

And you know the bad thing is that about 1 year ago before I bought the CW, I saw some of the work on the CW site.

I suppose the pics just made me forget. Hey, forget my last post!

dork here didn't do my artist research

Thanks everyone, made a little more progress this weekend, though not as much as I'd hoped. Had to do my taxes this weekend.

Used my Craftsman mini router to lower some of the wood.

I will be doing a front for this so the legs will be thicker on the other side of the fence.



Does this carving make my @zz look big ;D

Slow going but making a little progress. Only got a start on the first "me" lack the pockets and more work on the shirt and head and the rest of the carving.

Thanks ~Mike

beautiful stuff... but I have to wonder; what are you using the carvewright for in this? It looks like you're carving it by hand...

Thanks, when I'm done with the fence guys, I will scan it with the carvewright, this is how I make most of my patterns, hand carve stuff and scan it. I will use the carvewright to carve the panel that will go under these guys (a rodeo scene) using some patterns I bought from the pattern depot.

Thanks ~Mike

Oh, that is great! I wish I could do that kind of thing by hand; but then... that's why I got a CarveWright!

[TIMCOSBY]

well of course it does :>}. you've inspired me to give something like this a try when i get the time.
