Talking Re: My First finished (painted) lol piece.

Gotta figure out how to do a bigger pic. Had to use my Camera phone, adapter for my digi flash card not working for my real camera. Thanks to all for the good comments, working on another bigger "pocket Gnome" with more detail.

You took on a challenging carving for your first one...faces can be difficult at times. Well done. As was said...bigger pics next time.
