Ft. Pitt Powder Horn
« on: October 26, 2016, 01:54:31 AM »
Here is another collaboration from Bill Carter and me. The basis of the design is from a "Ft. Pitt" horn by The Pointed Tree Carver. I threw in some other elements. It is reminiscent of the PTC but it is my own folk art style. I did use a couple of images from Lee Larkin's sketchbook for filler.
Comments are welcome.

Ain't gonna happen Ron. Too much Hanna-Barbara in my muscle memory to be the PTC guy.

You talk like that's a bad thing?  ::).

It's still a really good looking horn even if their is a little Hanna- Barbera in it.
