Artistic licence. Well, that's what I call it. Because of the nature of wood and low relief I needed to move a bit of the church to another part, simplify some elements in the building and, having moved a tree from one side to the other, massively pruned it. And you know what? No one has even noticed!

Texturing is a curious subject to tell you about: so much I make up as I go along. Do experiment with your carving wood on some spare wood first.

Note: If a little bit of the video looks odd it's because Carrie inverted the footage she took. The result is that you can follow my carving the 'right way up'. You'll see!

George - With hindsight, perhaps I should have stated the dimensions. I didn't give the measurement as I assumed available wood might be quite variable, not to mention churches. And now I'm afraid I donated the carving to a local fund raising event, so no longer have it to measure! However, if you print out the download (About > Downloads) you'll find I added a scale on the working drawing so you can readily work out the size of the board I used.

Hi Chris Carrie, What is the actual size of your carving [the church] the size of the piece of Lime is what I am
after I can work it out from there.
George
