| | My first project I finished my first project. Yea.
It's from Rick's website, the free Santa pattern. (Thanks Rick)
I tried putting some Snowtex on his beard but it wouldn't stick, so I removed as much as I could. That's why his beard looks like it has pimples.

| | Re: My first project Dusty,
Now the trick is for each carving to turn out just a little better than the last one.
You have a very good start, I especially like the paint job on the hat.
