Evgeni,
Another fine piece of work. What kind of wood did you use for the buttplate and grip cap?

Evgeni,

A bold and beautifully conceived design, carved with skill and subtlety.

I particularly like the side with the hawk, it appears to be flying among small clouds, that are in reality the flame of the wood grain.

Excellent work, congratulations!

Evgeni,

Beautiful work as always.:tiphat:

Is the shotgun a Russian Tula or Bikal? Your stock work is so excellent that it seems to deserve a higher quality gun to go on.

Cheers,
Roger

Thank You All for congrats :biggrin:

... What kind of wood did you use for the buttplate and grip cap? ...

I use a hard area of walnut tree

It's Tula rifle and really inexpensive .
The customer has seen the video that I put into You Tube and sent me his .... original 44 years old beech stock :shock:

I decided that this is a challenge for my skills. First I had to restore dried and without resin up area

In general all the work was a mix of restoration and decoration, and seems looks thus after all. It was my goal.

Thanks again, cheers
Evgeni
