Splendid piece Kenny. Last year or this year, makes no difference, the time spent was certainly worth it. Great carving, he'll treasure it for sure.

Thank you all for the kind comments. Not being a caricature carver, each one I do is a challenge. I had fun with this one but difficulties also.
Finding out fast, it is better to carve in pieces and then put together. Better carving and paint job. Anyway in my thinking, which somtimes is cloudy. Well that is what the little bride tells me.
Don't tell her, but I don't listen to her very much. Sellective hearing is what the doc says I have. HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE

Merry Christmas HO! HO! Ho!
