Hi Kevin, I have been out of town a couple of days & just seeing your carving now. This is absolutely wonderful! I loved every minute of it. I have not tried to carve a fisherman yet but I need to. Your carving has given me the inspiration to try & as one Newfoundlander to another Newfoundlander I need to try because the fisherman is the symbol of the character, the determination & the integrity that is basis of what makes us proud & thankful to live in this wonderful island province of ours. Through your carving you have helped celebrate the legacy of all our fishing folk. Thanks .
Yet another great variation on my favourite characters. There will definitely be a few of these done for my collection as well as for family and friends.I just wish I could whittle with the same amount of confidence you have. Maybe in a few more years. Thank you for sharing Kevin, your videos, without a single word spoken are still the best tutorials out there.
That simple wrinkle under the eye elevates the face so much, really good work. You probably make half as many cuts as most people, blade sharpness is so important.
Great video, as always. I especially liked the simpler eyes, they look striking and would be a good next step up from hollow eyes, which is what I mostly do.
I think you would be the an excellent neighbor, if I had a bug free porch comfortable chairs, good light, it stayed 65 degrees, and you wanted to spend time carving, although I would probably talk a bit more than your videos. I constantly return to your channel and enjoy every one very much. Thank you for sharing.
Hello kevin I am new to carving and just wanted to know the top is 4cm and the bottom 5cm is that all the way round if you get what I mean thanks jason
I've had some that's not so easy. I pick through the wood at the hardware store. After working with the pine for so long you can kinda tell which pieces are the better wood
One of my all time favourite characters -I have a tiny one on my to do list -nice job as always Kevin
Thanks Doug. I grew up in a town full of fishermen. That could be the reason I enjoy carving them on much. Lol
HI Kevin thank you for inducing to white pine . Love it 😮

Great job Kevin love the fishermen. Have you ever shown how you paint a plaid shirt?
