Default A little Time For Some Little Guys

Long work hours have left little time for anything else ... But a few little guy's can be worked in between hours ...

Here's just a few I had a little time for lately ..

These guys are all 2 1/2 inches high , basswood and carved in the flat plane style ..

Thanks for letting me share

Gene

Hi, Gene.....you are amazing....a master at this flat plane stuff! All of them are wonderful, and I especially like the ones with the bigger faces...they really stand out, and that's tough to do on a teeny carving like that!! You put so much character in those tiny things. They're adorable! Bonnie

My favorite part is how you make all the wrinkles and folds in the clothing. Really neat - all of them!! And they looked like they were fun too!!
