Default Miniature Bear scene

All of the items in the scene were carved from wood in my scrape bucket, I have carved 5 so far, if I carve to many more I may have to use some other wood from my shelves for the mountain part.

The tallest bear is 1.25" tall and the short one is about 3/4". There is a clear dome that goes over all of it for display.

This is the project I have been working on while we were snowed in here in Portland. The original pattern for the bear is 6" which I have carved about 8 of them so far.

Now you just be careful there Arthur!
Those miniatures can be downright ADDICTIVE!☺......Althouh they do have the advantage of you being able to carve them just about any place as the chips are small enough not to be noticed<grin>
Well done, a truly delightful little scene.

A great idea Arthur.
As a canny Scot the idea has double appeal
