Red Wolf MB design may need changed
Red Wolf MB sketch looks freakin fantastic. Although, I think it may need changed. Just the base though.
Correct me if I'm wrong. The base looks to me like a totem poll. And totem polls are located on the Northwest Coast of America. Red Wolf is Cheyenne. Not from the Northwest Coast.
What do you think?

I can appreciate your wanting to be PC on this matter. However, I agree w. Iron Fist. The Totem Pole really does it for me. It sets the bust apart from all of the rest. The base can be just as important as the sculpt resting on top of it
Lessons from a 2 year old:
Cheerios do not make a DVD player work any better.
'Barbie' is synonymous with any female statue.
The one thing that I would like for Randy to consider changing on this piece is the angle of the head ... the downward facing head makes for limited display opportunities, especially when you consider that most of the face is already covered by the wolf cowl.

Interesting.
I agree!!Originally Posted by Jesse321
Actually, I would prefer a Lobo wolf base, much like the Ka-Zar/Zabu MB.
I think I didn't know that, man I suck.
Bowen IS from the Northwest Coast though, maybe that's why he gave it some totem pole love.
I'm just happy to see this guy getting made! AMERICAN EAGLE Randy!
