Default Country Doctor

I didn't decide what I wanted this to be until I had a roughed out head but I noticed the over supply of white paint and went with this. Reminds me of a local physician who retired 20 years ago.

As a physician assistant, I love it. What kind of wood is it?

Blusteel,
He turned out pretty good. The rounding will come, we all have problems with that from time to time. As far as the slowing down, still struggle with that bad myself. I guess I am just very impatient and can't wait to see what it is going to look like. Thanks for sharing.

Safe Carving and God Bless,

Mark
