Default Another Santa Finished!
I wanted to do a completely different beard than I have ever done. It definately is different!

Feel free to do a complete critique of this one. I'd like to know your opinions to help me improve my abilities.

This one is also 14" tall.

Let 'er rip!

Very nice, I like the curly hair. I will critique it for you the eyes draw to much attention, I think you should try carving them in rather then painting them, other then that A++++

Hi Scott: Nice job! Great looking Santa. I do a few curly beards on my Santas and they are not easy to do. Looks like you nailed it.
We'll be practicing more in Augusta come Nov 1 with "Cottonwood".
