Description:
Although I have been carving for many years it is just recently that I started using chisels and gouges instead of knives and power carving tools. This carving is obliviously based on Chris's Greenman design. My wife thought the original design a bit too scary so I changed the nose slightly and made the mouth more of an evil smirk rather than the original design. Overall I am pleased with the results although I know where all the improvements need to be made. Not that I'm telling anyone.
