Jax. The figures in this scene are about 8" tall. I reduce them for scenes so the complete piece will still set on a shelf or table. The base measures about 18x8". Normally, a single figure would average around 14-15" including the base. I originally did them smaller but they got lost in the crowd when standing next to others during competitions etc. Making them taller made them "stand above" the others. The old saying "You can't ignore the elephant in the room!" has a lot of truth to it.

Sign me up for a copy of your book when it comes out. Seeing your carvings is like getting the next issue of WCI, just can't wait till the next one arrives. Great job Lynn. Just love seeing them....Myron

What a terrific scene.
When I saw it, I thought of an old line from a sitcom(I think).
"This is gonna hurt me more than it does you"
