Whittling a Small Gnome -Tutorial

[Tom-H]

After posting a photo of a small whittled Gnome several have asked for a tutorial. I managed to whip one together and get it posted on the Beginners Carving Corner blog. This blog can be accessed by clicking on the link in my signature.

Tom, I noticed the Gnome was on a stick...that looks like a neat idea for getting a little more control when carving and painting.
Well done and thanks for sharing.

Richard, The stick is to hold the piece for the photo. It's not strong enough to hold for carving, but will work for painting. Thanks for looking.

Tom,

Fantastic. I for one am so grateful for finding this forum!! Everyone is fantastic about sharing their talents with those of us that could benefit from seeing how an accomplished carver works. Thank you Tom and all of the other great carvers out there who take the time and effort to make these tutorials. You are surely some kind and very generous folk!
