Thank you The wood's Obeche, not my favourite as it's softer than basswood and much more prone to splits, but it does have some nice features

Very nice. The character of that wood really adds a wonderful dimension.

Very nice piece. A friend of mine is carving a subject similar to yours. Sure keeps me distracted while he is doing it! Nice work and very smooth, like the color.
