Default This years carvings
Haven't posted in quite a while, was a busy holiday season and I didn't carve much. I got back in the groove, and here is my yearly output thus far. The fella in the top hat is 7 inches tall...was supposed to be an undertaker after I watched Little Tombstone...but he sure doesn't look like the undertaker in the film. The guy in green is a caroler in Old English garb, I got the idea from a scene in a movie over Christmas where the folks dressed up and went out caroling. The cowboy has just gotten up and is ready to brush his teeth and face the day. All are of basswood and are painted with acrylics and finished with satin finish poly. Hope you like them,comments and criticisms welcome as always.

Great job Slow!.............No critisim from here; and since everyone seems to be picking favorites, I guess mine is the caroler. Not really sure why I favour him 'cause they are all great.
