That is a nice carving. It looks like you have that "Old Eyes" down pretty good. Nice work.

While it's hard for me to understand how someone could ever get tired of carving Cowboys & Indians I will say you did a great job on that golfer.

Hey Jim,
That old coot looks great ;O)). I think the eyes look fine. In fact the entire carving looks excellent from the finishing to the carving. On really old folks I will slant the eyes even further from inside corner to outside corner and add some wrinkles, especially in the upper eyelids and bags inder eyes.
