Default Fireman
This is my take on the Fireman that Lynn was demonstrating on his blog. I went with a early 1900's Fireman uniform rather than a modern one, and it was fun to do. The hose is a piece of plastic tubing painted grey. Caricature stands 16" tall, carved in bawood and painted with acrylics.

Hello Bob, I really like the way you positioned him. The paint is number one. Nice job here my friend. If we lived just a little closer to each other, we could maybe get that carving club started.....Myron
