Default Chipmunked

Hello all,

I roughed out a mouse but his cheeks were too big so...
He became this.
I need help with my photography, but you'll get the idea.

Whatcha think?
Doug

That's a real cutie if I've ever seen one. Nice and apparently an accurate striped paint job too. Thank's for sharing this little fellow!

Great looking mouse Doug. Nice job. I always tell my Junior High carving classes, there are no mistakes in carving, just redesigns.
