Oh Geez, Wade! When are you adding the dragon on the turrets??? I can't wait to see the little garyogls hanging off the walls?? That is just one great castle. Now there is thinking outside the box and carving the wood into what it wanted to be instead of carving the wood into you arbitraily decided. Just a great, great use of the wood piece. Susan |

Yes indeed, totally Outsanding way of using what was before you. Not the usual Santas or woodspirits. I take it that the castle is on all sides Yes a dragon. You must carve one somewhere on that carving. Maybe out of a different kind of wood,, nothing fancy or two Knights dueling! Ah, the imagination runs away with itself. Gives me another ideal for a bark carving.

That is a VERY cool castle Wade! I have done a couple in cottonwood bark but using a cypress knee is a great idea.
