The lions belong to a commissioned work of the Schebecke. Saint Michael belongs to the model Gondola Funerale.

My new model: the "Funerale Gondola" is growing slowly.
These are mostly carvings at the model.
If someone wants to learn how to carve, he can contact me.

Thank you for all your replies. I am glad that this topic is of interest. Maybe there is a misunderstanding. I do not cut by myself the trees and are waiting till I can use it.
Meanwhile I have a good network of carpenters, furniture producers, lumber mills and farmers around my village. They know me and my work and are proactively offering me their material. Furthermore I use the wood of old furniture as source for my models. I rarely use exotic wood from other countries and never ordered something via internet. Why should I, when everything is around me.
Usually I get a whole branch which I can cut with my band-saw or by hand. And of course, sometimes the carpenter in our village is cutting it in the sizes I need. You do not need that much large tools.
This is my most important tools preparing the wood
This my favorite knife to grave cherry stone
Here you can see how I work with the cherry stone
