That's really good!   Are you power carvng or doing it with hand tools?  Ether way, that one is pretty nice.  I like it a lot.  How long have you been carving wood?

Nice work. I like it. I have tried carving and am not very successful at it. In the round seems to come out better for me than relief. I just can't seem to get the deal in relief. I need to take some classes in it if I decide to try it again.

Thanks guys,Al I have not been carving very long to be honest this is my second carving.My first was a buffalo head that I liked alot, but so did a friend and now its at her house.I used a power carver on this one because the wood was so hard but on the buffalo head I used hand carvers.
