Customer Reviews

Buy this book, you'll be glad you did!

This book, plus the three others in this series, are a super find for anyone doing bird or animal carving. It includes background info on each bird, instructions and most importantly, a pattern showing the side view, the top view and front view. Tips on making feet, how to texture and burn your bird are covered and suggestions for mounting are included. I am in a weekly woodcarving club and I have seen many of projects from this book (like the lynx, the coyote and the tiger) completed and they looked really good. A few years back I took a very expensive class in carving a quail and ended up with a real mess. If only I had known about the quail pattern and information in this book it would have been a different story. My only complaint, and it is just a minor one, is that I wish that information on painting the completed projects had been included.
