4.0 out of 5 stars Great value & help, but no seagulls, July 26, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Carving Shorebirds (Paperback)

All Hillman books are big carving aids. Patterns are b & w, & there are color photos in front & back. Get yourself a 2nd, color book of bird photos to help if painting realistically is your goal. No seagulls here - a surprise to me.
