Hello,

I am a beginner carver. I am looking for some constructive criticism to help improve my work.

Looks great for being a beginner. I don't know anything about carving antler so can't give you any help there. I have always wanted to do some though. Guess I had better get busy. Yours looks fantastic tho. Wish it was mine.

Cutler,
Like the others I am impressed. I have found that the carver is the most critical critic.
The only thing I have is not really with your carving, but with photography. The first two seems to have an issue with lighting, which does not do your carving justice. Maybe moving to an outdoors setting with natural light would give your carving photo's better quality.
But again, good job on the carving!
