Default Mini Football player

Sittin in the town diner this AM for breakfast I tried to get into the spirit of the up and coming football games this weekend. Whittled this little football player, and sat him on a penny. I'm thinkin it's still kinda in the flatplane style.

In case you're wonderin, he's a "buckeye".....Now to do a Michigan one.

May be flat plane style but it is a nice looking carving.
