Carving Figures

    While going through some of my old soldiers, I found a figure I carved and casted some 25 years ago. At the time the job I was at was slowly going under, and much of my spare time I would carve little figures out of scrap wood. After I left the company, I continued carving for a hobby.
   This little figure started me thinking of doing some more carving, as I've done little else. I carved two figures today. As my wife and I are leaving to go camping next week, I bought some more wood to take with me.

The  carved man. I'm rusty after 25 years!


I gave the wood man an acorn helmet.

He needed a club, too.




The wood man in a tree hollow.






The wood man guarding a cave entrance.


A giant dragon sniffing out the wood man!

The dragon is scared by the wood man's club and flees!

The wood man, safe for now.


One of the casting from my earlier carving. He was cast in resin.
