Project #18 - Squirrel

Another inspired by James Miller’s Whittling Flat-Plane Animals book. I made some modifications to his Red Squirrel to produce a Grey Squirrel which are far more prominent, at least in the northeastern states where I am, short round ears, a bit more bulky/bushy. Fun project, stuck with the single Harley knife again. Still got some cleanup, but, about ready for finishing.

This little gal ultimately went to live with my sister and brother-in-law as a reminder of a friendly wild squirrel that shared their lives for several years.
