I am "stumped" on who the one on the right looks like! However, I really like your double photo and you must have spent a lot of time making the frame - it looks great!

No Chainsaw Massacre here. I'm with Mr. Dillon, someone is really good. How do you get two pix on same page? I've got a lot to learn. I really like this post. Well I guess it was a post when they started. I'll have to relax on my bench and try to figure out who the right one is. I got it: The right one, is the wrong one. JJ

The other must be Wor lass :)

Definitely Owd Bob. Do they have to chuck a bucket of water over him every so often to keep him in condition?

How DO you do that frame thing? It's very effective. Looks like the same guy carved that as did the figures. Another fine post Ms Fogz.
