Default A new penguin...
Ok, it began when someone asked for a more realistic penguin, not a perfect one, just a bit more realistic...

So here is what she had in mind.





I can't resist women...

Now then, she said she would like the other one to look down... WHAT???... what other one?...

Thanks for looking...

Gilles

Thanks...

So, you mean I really have to carve another one?

Ok, Ok, you're right. They are really fun to carve anyway. These are more like 10-15 min than 5 min to carve, but I've got plenty of time now...

Great job, Gilles, that's a neat little penguin. You're going to be carving a whole gaggle of them now.

Marci, you kill me.

Ok, I did carve another one. I hope everybody will like it...

I don't like to make the same thing twice, so this one is on a block of ice.




I should look nice in or under a Xmas tree.

N.B. You were right Ed, I want to carve more, because I always like the last one I made more, and find them easier to carve.

Another fine penguin. Better watch out or you'll end up as the WCI penguin expert - LOL.
