Default Little Guy

This little fellow is 3 inches tall, painted with Acrylics. This is the first carving I have done where I used no pattern just started carving. Comments welcome
Larry

I like him a lot Larry!

I think it's great when folks just grab a block, start whittlin and come up with their own creation.

Any carvings completed bring rewards with them, but one of your own designs is just that much more special.

Very nice. Good painting.
Without a pattern says a lot about your capabilities.
