Default Barstool miniature

These are a few things I carved recently....mostly playing around with some ideas.

This guy was the first and is too small to get the details that I want.

1/4" square and about 1" tall....

Slightly larger versions....

I carved these without the rungs to make carving quicker.

Holy smoke those are small!!! I'm sure if I tried that it would be $500.00 worth of emergency room bills. Great job.
