Default 1st try

These are a few that I did a few months ago while looking at Lynns videos. I have a ways to go but it sure was fun. Hope you like them. . I do NOT know how to paint that is why I don`t do it very often. Vince

I do mostly chip carving, and don't know a lot about that kind of carving, but those look really good to me. When you say first try, you must mean that you have done other types of carving?

I think you should also post this in the caricature section. You did a nice job on them.

These are great! Good expression & details. Using a little color here & there adds alot- you did a good job.
Thanks for sharing-

Nice job Vince, I do not enjoy painting as much as carving.
