Sometime during the pandemic I bought a basic woodcarving kit on a whim, tried to follow along with Doug Linker's beginner wizard tutorial, but got discouraged and put everything into the closet when my wizard turned out lousy.

Today was such a pretty day that I figured I should try again. Wizard #2 turned out much better.

Needs a flared base, don't wanna go losing that thing.

Let me sand it down first! That wizard's got some rough edges.

Splintered for your pleasure

That's cool, I hope you enjoyed making it. Feels like it's an artisanal chess piece.

Looks like a whistle, or should I say...a wiztle. Good job!

I knew a guy that carved Santa icicles and this reminds me of that. You should paint and/or stain it.

His were xmas tree ornaments. You could just hang that guy on your tree.

I can’t tell if he’s in agony or pleasure

Grumpy old man.

What a well whittled wizard.

amazing for only your second attempt, and i imagine you'll just get a lot better from here.. i know mine would turn out looking like a mangled stick..

Looks great! The world can always use more wizards.

Omg that's hella cute! Once you really nail down your process/get more comfortable doing it, you should sell them on Etsy or something!

I'd love one of those guys as a little "Guardian" for D&D!
