Default couple of Trygg hobo patterns

Due to the lack of availlability of patterns for Trygg figures, one in WCI mag issue 9, which I've just finished carving, I just drew up a couple of patterns for two other Trygg hobos from photos on the web in case anyone wanted to have a shot at them sometime. I sized mine at 6" but you could scale up or down to suit.

THIS IS JUST THE PATTERNS - THE PHOTOS ARE ACTUAL TRYGG FIGURES!.... not mine .... I wish! LOL!

Simon-Your carving is top line. Your painting is top notch. I love the carving of the piece with the long cuts,then when you paint it,just jumps out at you. From 1 to 10 you got 11.

Simon, the way you are going at it, I guess we can expect these lads in a couple of days. And quit putting yourself down, your work is top notch.
