Default Stetson viking roughout

Well I just finished up another project that has been on the shelf for awhile. This is a roughout I bought from Dave Stetson in Creede Colorado about 6 years ago. I have probably 20 carvings, all roughouts from classes and shows that are in "process" as well as some that are still in roughout form. I like doing roughouts but enjoy creating something from scratch more. I have a couple of ideas for a couple caricature carvings in mind and will probably try modeling with clay for one of them.
