Default A Little Practice Head....

Well I had a couple hours to kill this morning and the little cut off from the santa stick was laying there so I started a little practice head. I wanted to do a little head with a stocking hat on. Hat's a little off and the face isn't to bad. My son says it looks like Tim Allen in Santa Clause when he first starts getting fat and has on the sweats and the stocking cap...lol. Anyway, didn't clean it up, just dipped and photo'd it real quick.

Thanks for looking as always.

Corey

Thanks Kenny and Kathy. I am glad I started "whittlin" (as my daughter calls it) this morning on it. Little sticks like this are great for practice and a nice break from patterns and such.

Hi Corey,

Nice little practice Santa. I tried to do a Santa last year and gave up. With all the new postings and carvings, I'm getting inspired to pick him up again.

Thanks.
