 Re: Started My Second Carving..... Well the carving is finished. I was able to get thru it without breaking the nose  It isn't perfect but for my 2nd carving I am happy with it and I learned a lot. Time to paint it now. Here are some shots of it in the nude Thanks for looking and appreciate any feed back. Corey  |

| Re: Started My Second Carving..... congratulations - nice job! I've done some snowmen with a nose "add-on" carved like a carrot. Carve a little "peg" in the end of the carrot that meets the face, and then a little hole in the face to fit the peg of the carrot-end. A little CA glue and viola! good luck! -Mark |

| Re: Started My Second Carving..... Thank you Mark. I was able to get the nose finished no problem. I think I will try a seperate nose in the future. Just ready for the painting now. Corey |

| Re: Started My Second Carving..... Snow-folks aren't that easy to carve, the grain change is tricky, but it looks like you handled it quite well... nice little guy! Looking forward to the paint!

| Re: Started My Second Carving..... Thanks all for the kind words. I feel lucky that it turned out respectable. I thought a snow man would be easy but due to the grain like Michael says it proved difficult especially for a newbie like me. It was also a lot of wood to remove. Thanks again, Corey |
