Been on a Refsal kick...

[Midnight Carver]

I've been on a Harley Refsal kick recently and have really enjoyed working in these pieces. Oskar and Sara are 8 and 7.5 inches and I decided against painting them, so they just recieved Danish oil.
I have already posted the troll, but wanted to show him with his "beautiful" queen. They are 6 and 5.25 inches, painted with acrylics and Danish oil. I had carved the staff for her, but my daughter decided she should have flowers and who am I to argue with a 4 year old, so she has fake flowers for now.
Karl (from his DVD) is 7.5 inches, the woodchopper is 6 inches. I haven't yet decided weither or not to paint them.

Thanks for taking the time to look

Nice looking carvings I have a few carved also. Just curious if you put tail on your trolls on page four of his book( carving trolls) he said he never saw a troll without a tail. Oh and I think your daughter is right the flowers do look better.

Nice work on those, Eric!
