Default First Egg Carving
This my first carving since we moved,after not carving for 4 months it wa hard to get my carving going again. I've been trying to carve for ths last month but couldn't focus.
This is my first egg carving , i took some ideas from Tom Wolfe carving egg heads and a lot of trial and error.I carve him for halloween , by the looks of his teeth he ate all the candy.
My wife didn't like him she said he was to ugly and didn't want to paint him, well she finally gave in and after he was finished to started to warm up to him.

Its hard when you cant carve at times but with moving and all its more than understandable. I like this carving? It shows you still have it Bill and the more you carve the better your carvings will fall in place.
Thats all I do is try but too,I have more time than you.

Your ole Tn friend,Forrest

I like him, Bill. A guy gets fond of homely.
Eggs are lots of fun to carve. I have one laid out to start on soon
