Default Carving tools

I am going to order my carving tools this Friday. I was thinking about some Pamelson Plam tools do I need to order the small size or the standard size? The pic that is attached is what I will be doing. I did this one with dental burrs and carbon tips. I will be doing relief carving more than anything else.

Smile Re: Carving tools

Being partial to relief carving myself, I'd recommend the smaller palm tools. They are a lot more economical than the larger tools and will accomplish the same thing.
Just my opinion, take that and a buck and it'll get you a cupa joe at Mickey D's.

Just remember Ramelsons do not come sharp, if you order them from www.littleshavers.com Rick will sharpen them for free.
