Whittling the Country Bear & His Friends

by Mike Shipley

Learn to whittle 12 whimsical woodland creatures with step-by-step instructions and easy-to-use patterns. Not quite caricature but not realistic either, these humorous bears, moose, rabbits and beavers are easy and enjoyable to make.

Each project features full-color photographs from four angles, in-progress shots, detailed patterns and paint color recommendations. Also included is a complete overview of carving tools, plus carving and painting tips and techniques.
