I've said it before, I don't like lots of fancy carving on longrifles, especially not ones with heavily quilted maple stocks. I also don't like gaudy four-piece patch boxes or brass nose caps.
But this is a rifle in the style of Isaac Haines, so here goes...
Even the best photos of originals I could find and good photos of the modern interpretations of others aren't clear in some areas, so I printed off some generic images of Baroque and Rococo carvings to help me sort out the details.
I'm taking my own liberties as well, doing what I think looks best and not attempting to make a bench copy of Haines' work.
All cut in:
I'm cross-eyed and my tools need a hone, but I got half of it relieved and some of the contouring and details done.
