Go to Google, enter the keywords "grim reaper", then when the list comes up, look up in the upper left corner of the screen and click on Images. You should see a lot of drawings/photos.

wouldn't be much of a stretch from a wizard or old world santa to turn that pattern into a grim reaper......course you may not get anymore visits from santa..but that's between you,santa and ol grim

Thankx for reminding me of Google......found a great Grim Reaper picture there. My brother (a non carver) loves the 'biker art' that I've done over the years, and mentioned that he'd like me to make him a Grim Reaper to add to his collection of my carvings.

I don't think I have any pictures of the reaper but I was married to his twin sister at one time. I'll hunt arround and see if I can't find some of my old wedding photos. Just substitue the flowers for a scythe and you'll be fine!
On a serious note, Haloween is coming. Look for a figurene that you can use as a 3-D model.
