I think the individual figures are not directly part of the log where they stand. I think common carving procedure is to cut a big hunk out from the trunk in the beginning, where they know most of the negative space is going to be, and then they take a block off that, carve a person, and set it into the landscape. So you could screw up a little guy, and just take another small block and try again.
