    Santa Ornament

    I carved quite a few santa ornaments this Christmas. I just wanted to share these with you all. Please let me know what you think of them.

    Nice and a lot of detail. I like the one on the right the best.

          Those look good, nice details on hat and beard. The small black dots make the eyes look a little beady? You might fix that just by making the pupils bigger, with a portion covered by the eyelids. Very well done!

                I agree with all of the others, and especially with what Mike says..... maybe paint a light blue iris, with black pupil and a small white highlight dot in the 11 o'clock position.

                  Very nice. I agree with Mike about the eyes. Easy fix.

                    Wonderful carvings! Not much I can add to the other comments, except a personal preference - I prefer a bit more of a satin finish.

                      Very nicely done! I like the detail and agree with others about the pupils.

                        both look really good, i do prefer the left one with the extra hair on the forehead. and the beard and moustache on the right one.
