Chainsaw Carved Hand Detailed, Gesso Coated, Hand Painted: Life Size Wooden Toy Solider - Based upon the 1903 Victor Herbert operetta, Babes in Toyland is clearly one of Laurel and Hardy's most popular films.

 

Based upon the 1903 Victor Herbert operetta, "Babes in Toyland" is clearly one of Laurel and Hardy's most popular films. This commission is a life size rendition of the toy soldiers portrayed in this classic film.

This commission required the combined efforts of Bob Eigenrauch and Stan Saperstein to create a figure from kiln dried poplar for indoor display.

The ruff work was completed by Bob, creating a full size blank. Stan picked up the process to carve in the detail using both power carvings and hand carving techniques.

"The figure stands expressionless, impassive, and alone." well ... not really these characters each have a unique poise, expression, demeanor, even a personality. A lifelike addition to any landscape, a freestanding sculpture as unique as the imagination can fathom.

Perfect for a seafood restaurant, or any back yard where a clam bake is a regular event. A mariner, anchor, and a flagpole are equally at home in front of your house or to mark the entrance to a yacht club.

No nautical portfolio is complete without a mermaid. Affixed to the front of a ship, a siren at sea, or a fantasy Disney character (Well, perhaps these aren't Disney as Bob seems to have forgotten the coconuts.)
