Default Thanks Mark, I gave it a try.

Like many of our members, I was facinated with Mark's Santa and his tutorial, so just had to try it. Attached is the result. Thanks Mark, I appreciate your efforts in sharing your skills.

My second ever Santa, he'd make a great face for a sea captain aboard one of my ships!

Bob

That's a smart looking Santa Bob. Put a fisherman's hat on his head and he'd look fine on one of your ships.
