Here's the wizard I been working on, I haven't been able to come up with a name for him. I developed my own design for him. He's a gift for my sister in law for Christmas, she was complaining about not having any of the carvings I have done and lucky her, I drew her name.

I haven't been able to come up with a name for him yet, maybe I'll let her name him. Wink

Great wizard. I'm sure she'll love it. The staff is cool too.

That is really nice work there! Absolutely a beautiful blending of colors on the finish too. The turquoise on the top of the staff really catches my eye and I know that it must be a most powerful sight to behold to see "in the real" instead of through the magic of photography! Could that be a real stone that you embeded in the staff? That was a nice touch and a good idea!

Thanks for sharing!

Excellet wizard as soon as I saw it Gandalf came to mind definatly "Lord of the Rings" or "Harry Potter" stuff. What ever she names it, it is a wonderful carving.
