Nice job on the cross. I have carved both the folk carved Nativity and the flat plane . The flat plane Nativity is easier in my opinion but I liked the folk art a little better because of the color. It ends up a personnel choice.
By the way I did do the football helmet on the golf ball but my son took it before I got a picture .Thanks for the idea,

Nice cross Carl! I think the more skewed it is the more unique it looks.
