Tried something different.....

[Steve Reed]

Got the inspiration for this little guy from Bob Kozakiewicz' article in the current WCI issue. Took his fisherman guy and made him into a primitive Santa. Not really my usual style, but thought it looked interesting. As always, comments are welcome. Pardon the messy bench...,.

Great adaptation! ... just goes to show, you never know who is lurking in that piece of wood until you put your knife to it....

Bob's article can be adapted a hundred different ways. Nice work!

Lovely little Santa. Is he carved from a block or a triangle of wood? How tall is he? Nice paint job!

[Claude]

Looks great, Steve

Thanks everyone for the comments! Rodster, yes it was carved from a triangular piece. Bob K use a square block I believe, but I had a triangle scrap on the bench, so that's what I used. didn't measure him but I think he's about 4 1/2 to 5" tall. Thanks to Bob K!

Is that a TV tuner I see in the background I have concentrate will I'm caving. Your adaptation really turned out good

[Arthur C.]

Good one, Steve!

[Steve Reed]

Good eye Joe! People ask how long does it take you to cave that. My response, depends on what's on TV! LOL

Remember Kitbashing - make something a bit different that the kit starts with. You started with a chunk of wood and took a different path to completion. Sometimes it is the hands, mind, or just the facts Mam. (as Joe Friday says).
