Those are all nicely done! I like all of your designs, especially the way you did the hair and mustaches.

Thanks all for the nice comments, I appreciate it. I sold some of these at a local fall festival, and took some orders, but the rest I have carved and sold has just been by word of mouth. I sell them unpainted for 5 bucks each, but I can carve
4-5 of them an hour, so I don't think that price is too bad. next year, I am going to dedicate myself to carving 2-3 per day, and then selling them all Oct-Dec. instead of this big carving marathon i have found myself in the last few weeks.
