Default 1/8 Man/Wagon/Mule
This a little man with a sack of sugar in his wagon heading home. Hes 1/8 wide X 3/8 tall from the top of his hat to the bottem of his shoes.His mule is 3/8 long with 4 individually legs ,the wagon is 1/4 wheel to wheel wide,the base is 1/2 wide X 1 3/8 inches long. To make the bridle,cut tooth picks into very thin strips really thin,once they was super thin,easy to bend them with out breaking them. Only stained some areas,wont paint him.

Hard to see but theres spokes in the wagon wheels. I need to get a better camera for smaller carvings.

Hope you like him and thanks for your thoughts. Im off on another carving today.As Ive learned carvings keeps the Drs away. But life is good~

Forrest

Incredible detail for it's size...you need to put all your carvings in a shoebox and send them to the Smithsonian....great job.
