Another couple of Hobo's

[Marcus Hunt]

I posted these under another thread which I shouldn't really have done. Here are another couple of nickels I recently did. I've really tried to up the quality since my first efforts but at the moment there's not really any financial reward as they're probably earning me less than a third of what I could earn on gun work (probably because I take too long on them). The thing is I just love messing about with them! I think I'm getting the habbit under control now .

hope you like 'em as much as I enjoyed carving 'em!

Nice job Marcus. Hemmingway looks great, and I like the gold touches in the Green Man. I agree that hobo nickels are are fun...the most fun I've ever had engraving. / ~Sam
