Default Anudder Wood Spirit...

I have today off so a big 4 day weekend. Thought I would carve since we are snowed in for awhile. Another woodspirit. Carved on a 1. 5 x 8 inch block. Finished with oil poly. I hate the beard, but I really liked the face. Oh well Thanks for looking!

I realize now that I should have posted this in General Carving section, maybe a mod can move it as it's not a caricature.

Thanks,

Corey

Very good with the eyes and his brow.
When I first looked at the image, I thought he was much larger because of the details.
Good way to spend a day inside...
I enjoyed seeing it.
