Default Elf Ornament
This is one of Wane Shinlever's Elf Ornament roughouts that I am doing for the show. I will do another as a Santa. They are fun little ornaments to do. He is about 4 inches long, basswood and painted with acrylics and oil. Finished in Satin lacquer. Thanks as always for looking.

Nice work. Was that from a video or did you just buy his roughout?

Thanks Curt and MakenChips. Yes, I got the video/roughout combination. It's a good one and the biggest thing I got out of it was how to do a squinty eye.
