Default Carving frenzie!

Well, with the burst of good weather I've been getting time to sit out the back and whittle away.
Still cant get away from those Wee Guys!
I've decided to leave them unpainted this time and finish them with oil finishes.
Hope you like them. I'm still a bit rusty yet!

Nice job - you're developing quite a nice style there. I'm kinda partial to the fist little guy.

Don't know about the others, but the only thing rusty that I can (not) see must be your bone joints!!! Those are really nice figures. The only negative I have is .....wish there was something in the pic to allude to their sizes.
