It was just about to small for me to.This was one of the hardest things i've carved so far.Not knowing what i was doing plus being so small was a real challenge but i'm alway you for a good Challenge.

You guys are nuts, "meant in a nice way". I have carved some small little fellas 1 1/2 but I have too much respect for these old fingers of mine to tackle anything that small, congrats, he looks as good as he can get considering what he is carved from.
