Nativity

[Mr. Chips]

Finally completed the Nativity, with a couple weeks to spare. This was a long project, but I'm happy with how it turned out.
More pics on the blog. Comments welcome.

Nice set, Randy. I can see how your wife would be proud of it.
That's an heirloom set that will be enjoyed for many generations, and that butternut adds to the beauty.

Re: Nativity

That should be an heirloom set. They are well carved with the right amount of detail that allowed the butternut grain to show.
