Default Looking for a Pattern...Caricature or Flat Plane Moose, please!

Hello there!
I'm looking for a pattern of a caricature or flat plane moose...he needs to be comical looking. Would anyone here have one or know where I can find one. I've spent most of the morning searching the internet and here on the forum and haven't found anything suitable.

My daughter's father-in-law has given me a few chunks of basswood from his woodpile for my carving habit and I'd like to carve a little "thank you" gift for him in time for Christmas. His favorite is the moose.

Thanks, Just Carving! Oh my gosh! I saw this moose in a book available online but didn't know the pattern was available. It is PERFECT! This is Mike Shipley's, right? Do we have permission to print off his patterns???

Hi Bob,
I removed the link you posted. It looks like someone scanned in the book (without Fox Chapel Publishing's permission) and is giving away the content. I've contacted the site hosting that scanned book and asked it to be removed because it's a violation of Fox Chapel Publishing's and Mike's copyright.

Best Regards,
Bob Duncan

Leslie:
Go to Google, type in "bullwinkle" and then on the Google search list, in the upper left corner, click on images. There are lots of pictures of Bullwinkle. Download a couple of them, and draw your own pattern, based on the pictures.

Oooops, glad I asked. I had even searched for Mike to ask him but couldn't find him. I'm glad you caught that, BobD. Thank you.

Hi Claude...and thank you. It seems you're always there to the rescue! I'll let you know how I make out with the "bullwinkle" search.

Thanks Claude, Bob & BobD. I found a couple of pictures on Google but no pattern. I will try your suggestion, Claude to draw one from the two pics I got. If someone does find an appropriate pattern I would still appreciate them passing it on. Thanks everyone!
