Mermaid Figurehead Progress

First mermaid figurehead scale model.

Mike just finished a couple of small scale mermaid figureheads in preparation for carving the full size version for Wrinkles. It won't be long now before he starts carving Wrinkle's very own mermaid figurehead.

Second scale size mermaid figurehead.

Mike doesn't plan on adding the tail onto the full-size mermaid. He added it to make this one easily wall mounted. A tail would likely be broken off in strong seas. The first version is pretty close to his original drawing. We'll post some pictures in our " Mike's Carvings" page if you want to see some other angles.

Scale is a little too big, but location is about right.
