Default Been on a flat plane kick lately

Well i have been doing some flat plane carving lately and throughly have enjoyed it nothing like carving with just a knife,well these 2 are from a pattern i came up with and are carved from the same pattern. finished with acrylic paint and a mixture of natural and med walnut danish oil, the danish oil was a test to see how it compared with boiled linseed oil.hope you enjoy these.
