Sweet!!!!

I like the effect of the wing behind the center and not through it....  very well thought out and executed  :)

Holy smokes. Are you SURE that's the first time you've carved wood? That is awesome!

Thanks for the kind words! I will be sure to post updated pictures as I go along. After I finish the Eagle I plan to add oak leaves and acorns to the upper riser. I have some other things I'm kicking around too. My goal is to create a theme as a raptor, hunting from the trees etc...

PowDuck, I am sure this is my first time, but you can bet it won't be my last, it is a blast to personalize my hunting bow this way. My next recurve may get an Elk scene with scroll work instead of oak leaves. That riser is Macasser Ebony and Myrtle in the 19" riser so I'll have more to work with vs this 15" riser.

JoeKeith- I love your avatar, that would be cool carved! I love Eagles!

I've got some new photo's here. Yesterday and this morning I was working on oak leaves and acorns. Whatta ya think? I'm pretty happy considering it's my first carving, I'll be grabbing my next curve soon, I'm learning a lot and know there is so much more!
It has been a ton of fun!!
