ReoRoosteronbase.jpgReoRooster.jpgReoRoosterHeadshot.jpgHi, All.  Trying to crank out as much as possible before the Albuquerque Show next weekend.  This is Reo Rooster . . . a bit smaller than my usual fowl.  The larger ones are 13.5" tall (not counting the tail "feathers") and this one is only 10".  My question is, do you like the photo with the chook on or off the base? I'm trying to decide whether to sell the base with the rooster.  Reo is made from 6 different mohairs . . . some that I've enhanced with permanent markers.  Thanks for looking and giving me your opinion.

Oh my goodness, WOW!  I haven't seen one of your roosters yet, so this is a first for me.  He's awesome!  I like him either way, but the base is really pretty!

Hey, will you be at the Indianapolis Show?

bear_shocked Sue Ann, you are the Poultry Princess!! He's gorgeous, beautiful,  . . . ACK I want this Rooster.

Did I mention

WOW

?

I like him best off the stand. I think Renae's right. But for a show table, I don't know. If you use the stand, CHARGE EXTRA!!

Reo Rooster is amazing, SueAnn. I just love your roosters and I am sure that he will sell like hot cakes!
I prefer him without the stand as he looks so lifelike.
best of luck with the show.

Sue Ann,

Will you be at the Indianapolis Show?  If you'd rather not say, that's OK... I was just wondering if I'd be meeting you in person there... :)

Oh, no problem, Kim . . . I won't be at Indianapolis.  Sorry, as I would love visiting with you!  I will be in Albuquerque this coming weekend and in Austin June 25th.  After that, I don't have one until Schaumburg in October.

Hi Sue Ann
Absolutely amazing!!! I also say off the stand but you could give the purchaser the choice. Charge a little extra for the base if they want it. Just how do you do the feet as I want to make some baby ducks but need suggestions on how to do the feet.  Good luck in the show next weekend.
Hugs

Thanks so much again, everybody, for taking the time to give me your opinion on whether to sell the base/stand with Reo, or not.  If someone wants to buy him, I'll just give that as an option (for a few more bucks!).  You are appreciated!  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:
