Default You’re a mean one…

Attached is the Christmas character I carved last week. It’s the one that the kids always said that reminded them of me. I don’t know what the little brats were talking about J. Nobody here in Whoville looks like him.
He’s 2x2x10 and is fun to carve. Thanks to Larry Green for the design.

Excellent! Just watched the movie version for the first time on TV... still like the cartoon version better - and you captured that Grinch look perfectly!
