Sorry I hope I was not being too forward I am just always on the look out for new faces to carve. I just took some photos of a 17 year old girl for my next carving. She is a friend of my son and was quite exited about it and quite nervous.

Hey there Andy! they are from the movie pride and Prejudice. Do a yahoo search. You will have gads of inspiration from that movie! I like to make my dolls from it
The way you described the plane makes me think of the Ren Faire i just went to. The best part of the faire was meeting the man who made Yew Bows the Old fashinoed way He had a little box made that he made his arrows the same way you made your candlestick. Good for you! I think you are learning the right way to go about things!

BBC - Drama - Pride and Prejudice

Jennifer Ehle in my post and the one in Keoma's played her sister. It would be fab if you did carve any of them or just something in Regency dress! I'm guessing a mannequin of wet-shirt Colin Firth is out of the question though heh...
p.s. you were being forward? you were just asking a question lol.

@keoma - oh yeah, I'm just a regular Maid Marion making arrows for Robin Hood! lol but maybe a decorative arrow head would be nice....

Kemoa are those pictures from a recent movie? Keira Knightley plays in it but that picture the you posted does not look like her or is their another movie or mini series.

I am starting to feel like I have to dig myself out of a hole. It is like when I say something innocent to my wife and she gives me that look and I try to talk myself out of what I said but the more I talk the deeper the hole I dig. So I'll stop writing now.lol
