Shore Bird Carving

Shorebird wood carving rustic style

[@williambailey9936]

Thanks, Mark for posting this very detailed video. This is exactly what I was looking for. My wife hinted that she wants me to carve her a Sandpiper, so this video was perfect. Also, I ordered a copy of the shorebird patterns book. - Bill

Hi Mark, I just wanted to give a quick update. I just finished my sandpiper carving yesterday and I am very pleased with the results. Especially since it was my first without assistance (supervision), and the first I’ve painted. Deciding how to paint it and actually doing it was probably more challenging than the carving. Was gonna attach a picture, but I couldn’t figure out how to do it.

I didn't see what is the thickness and kind of wood that you used? Thanks

[@markdmaker3173]

I just used a 2 x 6 from Home Depot. Nothing fancy. Just trying to show you can use scrap lumber to do art. Thank you for your comment I appreciate it.
