I think he's FINE.
Stripes are miserable to paint but yours look nice.
Don't you think an Uncle Sam might work on eBay too? He is collectable and a lot more scarce than Santa.

I agree with all of the comments. Very nice carving and paint job.
....are you satisfied with it as is, or will you put it on a base for stability? Just curious.
