I like the kids patterns, I would try a Thomas The Tank Engine if I was talented but don't want to attempt without a drawing/pattern. (My 2 year old LOVES Thomas as do all his friends!)

...Ryan emulating ralph off the simpsons, ryan you worry me sometimes!

Just showed it to Izzy (at home with a stinking cold) "..that's a bit young" says the 6 yr old! she had no problems recognising it, & says it'll appeal to the under 5's ..wise beyond her years! :lol: :roll:

Nice angle for this carve Ryan, somewhat out of the blue.

Not one I'll be carving, but it's a cracking design!

I blame any random silliness or corny comments on my perpetual lack of sleep during the Halloween season. Did you catch the puns on the front page news item for this pattern?
Use this pattern to help train your kids to carve, and they are sure to say "tanks!"
:lol: :| :oops: :roll:

Certainly not scary, but oft requested and searched for, according to my records. I commonly do patterns of "organic" creatures. So sometimes it's fun to try a pattern that is a bit more "geometric." Employ some mathematics and perspective.

You know, there is no better birthday present than a new ZP pattern. And my boys will like this one! Very nice work once again, Ryan! :D

Jimmy savile used to be the representative of "the age, .....of the train"
whilst not a driver i'm sure i've seen a silver haired bewigged character in thomas episodes, maybe a sneaky homage to the great man.

having what I would call a plethora of Thomas goods and a clientele of quite a few under 5s, this might work out well :)

Nice pattern Ryan. This should be very popular with the kids. Sometimes it is nice to have a non-scary pattern.

Its actually an inspired choice. The shadowing works brilliantly. A definite carve for sure which will get alot of Trick or Treaters parents asking "Where did you get that from?"

I'll have the flyers at the ready!
