Great Book on Carving with Techniques, etc.,
By Georgie Cavitt "an avid book reader" (Evans City, PA United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE)
This review is from: Carving Trophy Deer and Elk: A Technique, Painting, and Pattern Manual (Paperback)
I like to carve and when I saw this book with it's exquisite photos and color, I picked it up. Although I never found time to use it, you won't be disappointed with it. Contains pattern , techniques, and painting instructions as well. I certainly wish I could carve like Todd Swaim!
