| | Re: Three carvings Hi Doris,
Yes it is a finishing wax Doris - something I picked up in Marks tutorial disc. It's the final layer which brings out the detail in the carvings. They do appear to be "Patrick" carvings as you say. Its too easy to slip back into my comfort zone. However, I thing you'll see some changes in the eyes with my next one. You probably noticed a slight change in the eyes in the guy with the pipe. Thanks for your comments.

| | Re: Three carvings As good as it gets! I saved the second one for studying as it's got some of the best detail I've seen. The female is so real... stunningly real! Keep at it. |

| | Re: Three carvings Patrick,I was wondering what happened to you.I am a fan of your work and I can see some changes.I do like the finish you have applied really like the wrinkles which give a character the true spirit look.I am so involved in my move to Montana right that I just was able to take a peek at the message board and comment.I really enjoyed these carvings.Davy | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
