Default a Swedish guy and a little chick
Could be the first line of a joke... but its just my 2nd and 3rd whittlings.

The guy is from Gene's tutorial here on the site. all was going pretty well through the head area and the left arm. But then it all went to heck. The tv just grabbed my attention. I'm gonna have to try it again.

The chick is just another tv/whittle happening.
