Well you've heard this plenty, but... Great work, especially for only carving a few months. I'm just a little jealous... My first carvings were no where near this. Yup, A God given talent. Hope to see more.
Good carvin' to ya.

Ken, they are great little carvings, I like them all, but have to agree with Luciano, the eskimo and the warrior are have that little "something more" Well done and thanks for sharing.
