Native American Indians.

Pictures are shown in Gallery.
Here are four Native American Indians. My latest work from the stretched leather clock pattern kindly supplied by Smitty.  These were made from BB and cut by hand using a fretsaw with a 1mm thick blade with 00.01 teeth on a fine blade. Any feedback would be appreciated. John McLelland from England.

Awesome work.  I too like the way you have them framed.  Did I read that correctly that you cut those by hand?  Thanks for sharing your talent with us.

Wow.   I was in the gallery and clicked on one of the photos before reading the Brag.  My first impression was leather stretched and dyed or cut. 

Beautiful work, love the framing idea.

Thanks for sharing these with us.
