I like how you decided to listen to yourself, and put on your glove right when you thought of it. I’ve learned over time that it’s a pretty good idea to listen to those inner warnings 😂
"I'm just WINGING that..." he said as he started carving the wings. HAHA! Great tutorial Doug! The cardinal was my grandmothers favorite bird so I will definitely be giving this a go. Keep up the great work. You are an amazing teacher!
it's crazy, man. you're kind of a new hero of mine. carving is great for a peaceful mind.
Billie is beautiful! Love that you include your pups in the videos! Your carvings are never boring, just please keep making them!
Today I carved this guy. It was my fifth whittle. Thank you so much for sharing your art!
I love that your videos are something a guy can sit down and try in an afternoon even if he isn't an expert carver. I've used several of your videos as tutorials to dry a few new things. Keep carving!
Wow! This Cardinal is harder than I thought it would be, love the dog Doug. How about doing a carving of your dog? I think it would be a great project, and fun? I will watch this video again in broken down segments before I start my Cardinal carving since this is how I grasp things faster, I then start the video and carving 1 step at a time, rewind to make sure it's confirmed before moving onto the next step. I like the head turned more approach vs straight on because in real life all birds are turned by moving thier heads back and forth, very realistic! Great job Doug, and thank you for this project!👍👏💯👊
i always recommend watching it through once before trying so you get a better picture of what's coming up
Excellent tutorial! My wife has been bugging me to carve a bird. I find birds intimidating. This one looks doable for me. It will be a good addition to the gaggle of your gnomes, bears and assorted other characters sitting around the house. Thanks!
It does my heart good hearing Doug complain about his wood 😂 I have groaned that my wood is much tougher than every carver on RUclips.
glad you appreciate my struggle haha
@@dougLinker.....but please tell me you power stropped that knife before you started...😂...Happy New Year Doug !
Thanks! I’m a noob carver and a seasoned bird watcher - looking so forward to carving along with this one 👍🏻
Doug the dowels are great. I started with a 5 foot dowel and carved the Bear coming out of the stump first and then cut it off the long dowel.
Now just working my way down the same dowel I will do the Cardinal next and then cut him free. I plan on doing this until I feel good enough to turn the dowel into a totem pole of Spirit Animals. Very fun, keeps it inexpensive, and a good way to take the long dowel and do 4 or 5 practice versions which I find allows you to try various paint configurations to get a version you are happiest with.
Absolutely great tutorial. Thanks
Thank you so much for this tutorial!!!! You are very good at tutorials, first and foremost. Secondly, I am so excited to carve a cardinal (also a huge fan of those birds) and to be able to use this to create so many other birds as a quick little carve in the limited carving time I have. I think an American Goldfinch would look great with this concept. Please keep doing what you're doing. Coffee on me today. ☕Thanks again!
thanks Gary!
Thanks for the reminder in creating a 'shadow' over the past few years I've been watching your channel and those tips are particularly helpful. Also glad to see you struggling a bit with harder wood as that's all I can ever get my hands on, thanks brother...
i knew someone would appreciate my struggle haha
Your videos are never boring Doug. Billy is amazing!
Cool project. Love how simple the carving is and how nice it turns out. I've been a chainsaw carver for 26 years. I'm just now starting to play a little with knife carving. Thanks Doug
Damn clever with the eyes and turned head. Well done. 👏
Love them Doug ..simple and very great teaching to help beginners ..Thank you my friend for what you do for the carving community
thanks Gene!
@Gene Messer. You and Doug are the best. I learn and am inspired to carve by you both. I love both your carving styles. It would be so cool to see one of your ideas on carving a 1 inch dowel.
Holy beard growth Dude..if you listen closely you can hear it growing on the video lol…great fun carving Doug
Doug, that is another awesome video and I love all the ideas you have that just use a dowel. Thanks for sharing. You are a great teacher. 👍🏼
I just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing all this video. Because of you I have fell in love or become addicted to carving wooden birds. It wouldn't of been possible without this video, thank you for sharing your tricks and tips to help us that are just getting started. Thank you thank you thank you. ❤
Hello dough , andy paige here I'm a new subscriber, to your channle and I'm new in to wood carving ,love your show
New to whittling got a knife for Christmas your videos are amazing! Thank you for all your tips and tricks. Working on a lil hillbilly man now. I've done a few of the 5min wood spirits and a couple gnomes. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos YOUR AMAZING 😍
Thanks for returning for another year. I check every day to see when a new video pops up.
I definitely have to do this lil guy. Nice work.
I just realized, you are like the Bob Ross of carving. So calming and informative. One difference being, your afro grows from the chin down.
Thanks again for making me a better carver.
Finally got back to watching you Doug calm peaceful very talented. Thank you sir.
I really enjoy these dowel carvings. They are adaptable to various applications. Thanks Doug for these tutorials.
nice carvings and what a beautiful dog!!
Thank you Doug for your terrific channel. I discovered you a week ago and subscribed. I’ve never done wood carving in my life, but you are inspiring me to take up the hobby. My hobby is model aeroplanes and tanks. Take care and thanks once again. Graeme from Australia.
You made a guy that didn't think he could carve a bird, carve a bird! It's awesome! Thank you so much for showing us! I learned a lot and now I'm gonna try to make a worry bird! 🐦
YES! I have been wanting you to do a cardinal carving. I love the one in woodcarving illustrated but was intimidated to start it, I love the way you explain and actually mark things off, I get a better perspective visually than from just pictures. You by far are my most favorite carver! Thank you for the great video! Looking forward to more of your work! Happy New Year!
Hey Doug! This was my first carve of yours I successfully completed! I did it using a branch from a tulip poplar so I empathized with your hard dowel, love this hobby, and your videos are such a service!
Great video. Thank you Doug.
Always love these little carves. I hope this makes it into the 1x1 series you started. A cardinal in some form has been near the top of my list of things I wanted to carve.
I love your vibe man, and your modest attitude on how you bring it and try to show it.
So I'm off looking a new walking stick and cut a cardinal on it.
Thanks from a Belgian living in Argentina.
Great video thank you. Still watching and backing up and going forward and backing up and going forward. Because I'm very slow!
Excellent. And thank you for sticking with a hard dowel like the one I buy (lol) and carve a great piece. Gilles
You make this look so easy, yet I know that it was more of a challenge since you had a hard dowel. Beautiful results! Great video. Thank-you!
Thank you for sharing these, I really enjoy carving these guys!
omg that dog is going to be huge!! we have a standard poodle, your puppy reminds me of her. they're great dogs.
Nice idea for a carving. Your channel has got me started into my own wood carving enjoyment. Thanks for the continued creativity and walking me thru the various techniques.
I just made this! It was my first ever whittling attempt and it turned out pretty good! I really appreciate this tutorial, thanks!
I'm just getting into some knife carving. Ordered a set of good carving knives and being from Missouri, these Cardinals may be my first project. Great tutorial.
Just carved and painted one. Great quick project! I finished the black eye with a touch of gloss poly. Made it more realistic. Thanks for the video!
The small beak looks like a finch, the eye carving demo makes it turn out a lot better great tip
Outstanding video. Thanks for helping us beginners!
Simply said Thanks for your time and sharing your talent with all of us. Can't wait for you do some more vids back in the canoe and camping adventures.
Another great carving tutorial! Thanks Doug!!
hi doug i so enjoyed this cardinal i love the dowel carvings i am going to try this one as soon as i get to the store to get some dowels thank you for your podcast i look forward to them when i get a notice that they are on see you next time
Thanks for another great tutorial. Love carving from sticks and this one is so easy after some practice. Just a note, in my search for material for walking sticks, I have found that the Alder that grows along the many beaver swamps on or near our property works great. Fairly easy to carve, wet or seasoned, abundant, and free. I enjoy your videos and your wit.
Thanks! For background. I am a beginner whittler and stumbled on your realm. As I came back to this video for the third time (doing my own cardinal) I realized I would pay money for lessons like this. So...note to self, if I do one of your projects, a coin in the jar. And as to female cardinals...agree close up in the sun, unsurpassed for subtle coppers and russet...be interested in seeing you paint one of these female!
thanks!!
Good job I like the bird 🐦
Happy new year Doug and family. Looking forward to 23 being another fantastic year of carving with Doug.
I'd like to see an Owl dowel please Doug...great fun as usual.😁👍😁
already have one -check the dowel playlist
@@dougLinker , thanks Doug...I'm on it.😁👍🦉👍
Just finished one, I think it’s pretty good since only been carving for 4 weeks. Excellent instructions
Thank you for your video's I am enjoying my new hobby
She is cute great dog there
THX Doug!!! I chose a to use a block of wood and made a cubby bird. This is the first bird I’ve made with your help thx again !!! CHEERS!!!!
Have seen this done on a log with a chainsaw, glad you brought it to this scale. Great tip on the eyes too, can't wait to try this. Thanks Doug!
Gees Doug that is a huge dog already. Bet she is a treat to watch in the snow,. My neighbour got one and she is crazy right now.
Yeah this Ontario weather isn't right at the moment!! Great video
you have a great talent on keeping it simple, great job. thank you
Love it Doug! Can't wait to give them a try! I know someone that could really use one of those to bring a smile! You have so inspired me in this new love of mine. I thank you very much!!
I love the cardinals! ❤
Hi Doug I am relatively new to your channel, I've made the first owl an a skinny snowman, I'm working on the snowman with a jacket, an this cardinal. With your family getting BILLIE(Y) JOWS ABOUT A SHAGHY DOG IN YHE SITTING POSITION?!??! EH WHAT DO YOU SAY?!?! AH COM'ON MAN!! LOL
Great video keep them coming
Hi Doug, I've been following you for a couple of years now, and without doubt this has been my favorite video. I especially like your way of carving the eyes. Keep 'em coming 😁
What a great little carve Doug!! Thank you
Great video Doug. You made me go out and buy a dowel. I'm currently working on a dowel owl. I was glad to see Gene Messer's comment. You two are the best. It would be so cool to see you two do some kind of collaboration. Podcast? Or, Maybe pick a subject to carve and each do your own take on it and then reference each other on your respective videos.
Thank you for the video the turned head shows some movement. Going to work on a few of these
Sir I want to thank you for sharing your gift I'm a new sub I love your channel you are amazing Daniel army strong
My son will love this! Thank you! 👍👌
Vos Tuto sont de loin les meilleurs que je connaisse Débutante, grâce à vos vidéo je m’amuse et les gens apprécient leurs cadeaux! Un stage chez vous serait le must 😊
Fantastic. Enjoyed. Thanks Doug. 👍 👍
I recent started, and I'm carving my first bird from you idea about a Cardinal from a dowel. However, I decided to carve a Dove instead since my wife loves doves, also I'm doing it from a block of wood, she say it looks so real with the details of feathers. I also carved the claws and feet, the Dove is sitting upon a stump with the claws over the front edge. I see a lot of carvers using metal legs, feet and claws for birds, why? I know I put more work into the feet and claws. It has been time consuming but, I think this is one of my best wood carvings. I joined the chat on the 22nd, and thanked you for the ideas about the Cardinal. Anyways, I took picture of my progress now going on 8 days on this Dove, thank you again Doug. 👍💯🥳🕊
Just started carving and this was my first thing to do yesterday. Turned out a little weird eyed, but otherwise i'm quite happy for the first time. Quite the enjoyable and relaxing thing to do.😊 Love your channel!
I just did a cardinal from the current WCI issue, but put a baseball twist on it. I’m going to have to try one of these too. Thanks!
Love this cardinal carving.
Nice job on these birds Doug. Looks like a fun little project
Love this one Doug, great looking Cardinal!
I love that the head is turned. I think it gives it movement.
Great job Doug! Can not wait to give this a go. Flat out my favorite bird. Appreciate the video.
Another great video Doug!! Will be checking out the different stores. I found in the past that the hobby stores have a much softer wood for sale but more expensive.
Very nice!!!
I have taken about a month off from carving just to recharge and break the cycle. Getting the itch to get the knife back out. This might be my motivation.
I really enjoy watching and learning from your carvings , thank you for sharing
Hello! WoW! Wow! You have an interesting channel. You are doing great. I wish you prosperity and success! God bless you and all your family! Good luck! 🍎🍏🍐🍑🍒
Just a really nice project thanks for simplyfing
This is a great design- love your attitude to carving. Thank you!
Thank you for this; I will give it a try; perhaps modify to a chickadee or titmouse; I have 3 children and 9 grandchildren; I have been looking for a piece to carve and give to each of them that would not break easily and was durable and small and simple so it could follow them throughout their lives assuming some of them may be living in small tight quarters etc. with multiple moves from one location to another. They certainly will not be likely to be doing that with a full size decoy or a carving with fragile legs etc.
Hahaha, stop, stop, stop, I'm only just over a minute in and I see these lovely, funny little bird things on sticks and they look great - can't wait to see the rest of this! Man, these are what I would make to hand out to friends and family - wonderful, even though I haven't watched the actual making yet. 😐
Love to see another black wing pencil user!
Thank you, Doug. Keep up the good work. Love you videos. I’ve tried many of your projects and really enjoyed them.
Love the cardinals, so cute! Keep carving, you did a good job!
how many did you have to carve till you felt like you were good with it. My husband's got a little frustrated with this one; yet has Done SO many great carving projects from your videos too! He just wandered. Thanks for all the great ideas
You've doweled it again Doug!
A good rendition of a cardinal
Nice work again Doug, thanks!
Can't wait to try this. Great tutorial.
Oh! My Granny is going to LOVE this for mother's day. Thanks for the new carve idea😁 Nice painting. You have really learned a ton about that! Hope i can get that good someday. I bet I can☺️
Doug, your work is amazing 😃 What happened to the little guy in the red canoe? I wanted to buy it from you years ago.
All the best to you.🤗
