Default Couple of Leperchauns

Thought I would try something different than the Shamrocks, just to carve them
Here are a couple of Leperchauns the bigger one is
3 x 1 1/2 " Green top hat and Green eyes and of course the orange beard.
The little one is 2 x 1 1/4 " and has the Leperchaun Green top hat and eyes.
Me thinks I like the little one better.
Both been tip'n the brew a little and has the rosey cheeks and nose

See what you all think.

I agree with you,the cheeks and the cuts show up more on the smaller one but to say nothing about one or the other? I like them both and nice job on your painting too! Great work Kenny

I like these boys! The little one is my fave.. he reminds me of a fella that lives by us.

What thicknesses of wood are you guys using for these pins? And are they carved by knife? I'd love to do some pins, but not sure on where to start. Thanks.
