Default start of a new project

working off a known persons backround of running a junkyard, and using marv's the mechanic chariter for a starting place to modify to the squat beefy armed thick chested image of this feller with a cutting torch or flywheel something to do with auto wrecking in his hand

im going to try to carve this feller & wife, as hes getting into some bad health issues and think it would give him somewhat of a good day to see it and remember back on thr good ole days...

ill post occasionaly as i get some progress,

but i need comments to aid in design
the female was long a lanky 5-11 100lb black cateye glasses, ponytail and fruit boots..
the male was 5-4 170 muscled up t shirt wearing flat top camel smoking dude out of the 50's

posted attachments are the begaining she needs lots of work and he isent started but put marv's mechanic in pic so he would have a repesenatation...
