Wow!
That is truely awesome. Wish my other half had woodwork skills on top of her cooking, cleaning, mothering etc.

It's a great idea. Showed them to my wife and she said "if they're selling these, they'd make a great addition for your room in the basement!".

Name...how about the Spruce Excuse? (yes Honey its furniture!...although she seems to be as into it as you! Too cool.)

My wife put me in charge of the less technical 2d bezel carvings. I'm kinda proud of my little dudes. Some of them turned out cool but a far cry from what she can pull off. She knew she would have to give me one of those tasks that are really time consuming but pretty much mindless. This was to keep me out of her way while she worked her magic on her 3D pieces. It worked out good for both of us.
Name Options (need more) so far:
Pinewood Paradise
Spruce Excuse
Woody Kong
Bouncy Barrels
Donkey Paradise
Would like to really thank everybody for the compliments on the wife's artwork. She appreciates it as well. I hope someday soon she can get her own BYOAC account and tell you herself but now she is busy carving more stuff for fellow forum members, so who knows when she will get to it. She started two more Donkey Kongs today!
Edit: My friend Tommi from Twin Galaxies added to the name list...

All I can say is "WOW!!!"
Just got my Donkey Kong and Pacman... Now to figure out where to HANG it! :)

Verrrry nice... I'd recommend against doing something (like the molds) with which you could mass produce them. The carvings are awesome and unique. Making them out of plastic would make them less unique feeling and probably get the attention of some people who wouldn't like your doing it.
The wood carvings are sweet. Very nice.
