I always enjoy your wee guys, I especially like the sea captain. Just as a side note every few months when I go on u-tube I watch your two videos of little guys. Never tire of them Thanks for sharing

Great little carvings Simon! Especially liked the old Sea Capt. and the Woodcarver, although the others are really nice too... I'm with Forrest on this one, I too think you should leave them unfinished, the way they are now really shows off the grain of the wood and that really adds alot to them...really nice carvings! Thanks for sharing them with us!

Very nice. I do some small guys as well - I'm impressed that you're using pine.

Simon,

Bonnie carvings! how tall are your wee guys? You must live close to Norge. Keep posting them, or as Harley would say, "en gang til"!

Thanks again for all your encouraging coments. The Wee Guys are 3-1/4" tall and on a 3/8" base.
JohnM, they are carved out of Lime wood which is the European equivalent to Basswood.
