Default Looking for pattern or rough out, fireman.

My nephew just became assistant Fire Chief and I'm looking for a good caricature rough out of a good sized fireman or a nice bust of one for his desk.
I've had some health problems and haven't been on here in a while. It's good to see that all the folks on here who were so helpful to me are still here. What a great bunch of carvings best of the best hang out right here!, Mike

Mike-in-WV, hey, check out the free carving patterns here under Carving Community located just to the left of these messages, at least a couple of patterns there. They are from older WCI magazine articles.

WCI, used to have one in the free carving patterns by Peter Ortel, There used to be one of a little boy, by Peter Ortel in one of WCI's artciles, , you may want to run a search and find it. I'll look in my old mags and see if I have a picture. Also Susan has a relief pattern you might want to check out on her website, her name her is [b]Irish good luck and share the finished carving with us
