Probably one of the most difficult to carve, and definitely not my strong suit. But I wanted to share anyway, some human figures I've carved.
We'll start off with this angel.
She was the first piece I carved of an order for a Nativity scene.
Here's the next:
Virgin Mary
Here they are together, starting to look like a set..
Then came Joseph..
One of 3 wise men...
Shepherd..
Another wise man..
Wise man number 3 done and thrown in the mix at the manger.
It was set up next door, my landlord's business. The best part about this order was that both my landlord and I love to barter. I paid one years worth of rent and got a hefty credit line at the saw shop. (He owns the Stihl dealership) Bonus!!!
We can't forget the most important part of the manger scene...
Baby Jesus
Here they are set up...
This year I have to paint them all so you will see them again later this year.
I think I'll finish this post with a crucifix I carved for a separate order..
End of part 1 of my chainsaw carved human form post, in part 2 you will see some non-religious sculptures, some fantasy and some realistic. Coming soon..
I hope you enjoyed this post, if so feel free to upvote and resteem. I have much more to share here on Steemit. Stay tuned...
And thanks for looking
