Carson Catlin's Playsam custom for the Super7 show!

In our continuing coverage of the "Playsam 500" custom toy show, which focuses on artists customizing the iconic Playsam Streamliner Classic wooden car, we present to you Carson Catlin contribution to the benefit event. The above picture is a little dark, can't quite see what's going on, and…

…there we go! That's a lot of deep carving in some solid wood. I love that Catlin remade his style in the wood, which couldn't have been easy at all. Based on what we're seeing, I expect their to be at least one casualty from all this serious wood working going on!
