Hey Mark , he"s really looking good,cant wait to see the finished carving. Vrey nice design,theres nothing better than seeing a artist coming up with thier own design. Truly unique. and truly something you can call your own.

I'm always impressed with how clean your carvings look in each stage. Very nice Santa.

Yes Mark it is one of my originals,although I will say that your
santa was some of the impression on
the long stocking hat.

Bart:
Santa was carved from a 2 3/4"x 2 3/4"x 5 1/2" piece of basswood.

Mark that is going to be one amazing Santa I saw your last project and I was very impressed I am sure that this one will be just as good. Being a Santa collector I cant wait to see the finished product.

Mark,

Really looks nice. I agree with an earlier comment - very crisp, clean lines and cuts so early in the process....very impressive.

The shape and proportion of the head and face is really nice. You should do a step by step for us!

That is a good job, I've tried to do that and can't. Easier said than done. Nice work.
