I know I just redid this guy this fall but after visiting the John Wayne's birthplace a couple weeks ago and seeing a great painting titled Ethan there. I had to pull mine back off the shelf.
So here is my first attempt at making a base and one of my favorite scenes from the movie and the basis for the painting.

Great figure!!! One of John Wayne's best characters.

To quote Ethan - " I don't believe in surrenders!"

Good job Hondo!

Hondo, great concept! The doll really adds a lot to this scene. The chaps are very nice...did you make those?

Thanks everyone.
tolleyo I made the chaps. You see them or a pair similar in several of John Waynes movies.

I like that one part when he yells, "Do you want me to draw a picture?"

Jimmy, your stuff just gets better and better. This piece should be in a Museum. Magnificent!

That is a cool bash. His reaction to seeing the doll is posed very well.
