Title: Wild Fire Artistry...Brother's First Deer
Post by: Hooked on September 05, 2011, 12:06:00 AM: Been a while since I posted any of these. Primarily because I was doing orders that were not traditional archery related. They either had a gun in them or were not related to hunting at all.

Here is the design...my understanding is the girl in the photo is now 32 years old, her brother passed away a few years ago. Their Dad is having me do this as a gift for her.

This looks cool so far.
I agree with coonbait.

Excellent work as usual. Amazing to watch those works "come to life" in your sequential posts!

believe it or not, I still have alot of work to do on this one: fine tuning their faces, the body of the deer needs some more shading, and the inscription.
