DOGS DAYS OF OCTOBER...

ABOVE IS A CUSTOM DOG HEAD I JUST  FINISHED ...A SCOTTIE...ON 18ST AND 7" H....
I DID TWO DOGS FOR THIS CUSTOMER AND THE OTHER IS ON MR. SQUIGGEES BLOG....
BLACK DOGS ARE A CHALLENGE BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO PLAY ON THE SHADOWS THAT ARE CREATED....WHEN YOU PAINT SHADES OF GREY YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE COLORS VERY DISTINCT SO THE STITCHER CAN EASILY SEE...  THE TRICK IS TO SOFTEN THE SHADES WHEN YOU CHOOSE YOUR FIBERS.....WITH ALL THE WONDERFUL FIBERS YOU CAN REALLY HAVE A GREAT TIME WITH TEXTURES....AND WHAT IS MORE FUN THAN WORKING A CANVAS OF  YOUR POOCH !!!!
