Going Back to Basics - Simple Flat-Plane Viking - Tutorial

​​#whittling​​​ #tutorial​​ #viking
Hello gentlepeople,
We're going back to basic, carving a little Viking guy as simple as it gets, flat-plane style.
No hands in pockets though! Why? Viking didn't have pockets!
Piece is ~1 1/4 x 1 1/4 x 3 1/4 inches or 3.5 x 3.5 x 8cm.
Wood is Lind (lime/basswood)
Knife is Sergey Belov
I hope you enjoy and have a great day!

    I love the flat plane style. I have a real problem with keeping my cuts flat. The long cuts always seem to go wonky towards the point of the blade. I don’t know if it’s because I’m left handed or what

    I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with the hand you are holding the knife. The more you practice the better it will be. I'll still learning a lot too!

    I have an older video where I carved odin's raven on a rock but I haven't done any other animals. I will, at some point, try to carve worlves and bears but I don't know when. I having fun refining my little guys for now.

    Enjoying the video can’t watch it all at once as I’m busy but will watch it all in time. I was wondering if possible could u do a couple of vikings using 1”x1”x3 or 4”? I only ask as I don’t have a workshop or anyway to mill wood to size so have to rely on what I can get off Amazon. which is mostly 1”x1”x 4”-6”or 10” if I had one to use as a guide it would help with future projects although I have the carving little guys book I find following ur videos easier as I can’t read very well and lose my place very quickly. Again thank u great video.

    I will see what I can do. I got my wood all cut to these specific measure when I got them and I had around 520 pieces that I'm burning through. I also can't mill my own wood! Haha

    The only "basswood" I know that one can order from pretty much everywhere is from Beavercraft. I bought two different sets from there and the wood was really good! I even made a video out of it.

    Hi carlo, many asked me and sadly, I bought it from a friend of a friend here in Sweden and he doesn't sell outside of his little workshop. He has cut all my pieces the same dimension. One day, I'm sure you'll be able to easy carve everything you see here.
