| | Re: New golf ball to view Your going to have quite a collection when your done Cliff. What's the core made of in a golf ball anyway? I thought it was a sort of spongy material which would make it difficult to detail.

| | Re: New golf ball to view Patrick, thanks for takin a look. A golf ball is some kinda indian rubber, quite hard but does hold detail well, it's a lotta fun to carve. Not quite as nice as yer lady tho.

| | Re: New golf ball to view Cliff .. your doing very good on those fellows .. Golf balls are not as easy to carve as you think . you have limited space and it's difficult to get detail in such a small piece .. but you have done a fine job of it ..
If you want a suggestion on your faces .. here's a tip .. on your cheeks and mouth from the nose down .. next time use deeper cuts into the face to give more character on him .. just try it with practice and see if you may not like it better ...
Great job ..
Gene

I'm amazed that you can even carve a golf ball.But you sure did a first class job on him.
