That painting is way beyond my grasp! Wonderful carvings.

Thanks for the tip, Wayne...I will definitely check it out!

For any of you who have shown an interest in the plaid painting technique Mike Pounders has posted a great tutorial in the "Wood Finishing and Painting " thread . Take a look and give it a try, you'll be surprised to find its not all that difficult after a little practice.

Great looking pair. The painting is really nice. Will you keep carving these during the off season?
Carve On,

Cute Santas, love the eyes very expressive and nice painting on them also.

A man after my own heart Soggy! Santa 'rules' ...
Nicely done sir!

[Bob K.]

You're absolutely right, Wayne! It's never too early to carve Santas...they're never out of season! Fabulous job on those ornaments...and your talent for painting plaid is killing me!

[Nomad]

[Tom Ellis]

Those are great Soggy, personally I wait until the last minute to get one carved for Christmas. You really have the plaid painting down.

Love em, Tom

Hi Wayne, They look a little sad. I guess it's because Christmas is a Year away. Great little Carvings. Merle
