Don't say bleh. Just keep going and finish the carving then see how it turns out.

Looks good TW,
Keep these early carvings so you can see how you have progressed after you have done a few more. It don't take long to see improvement. I have to resist going back to fix up some of my early attempts (they make me laugh to see them).
Your off to a good start.

Good start on that. The half finished stages often look a bit ackward. Keep it going, you are doing well.
