Nice job Colby! You'll find that almost all carvers second guess themselves even after they've been carving for years. You'll always look at your work and think of something that you could have done differently. It's just part of the constant learning process!

Thank you all so much for the wonderful comments and suggestions. I will definitely use all of them for my future comments. I have a picture of my next my project I want to post to ask some questions. Its a farm scene and has several aspects I have never tackled. Once again thanks so much, this forum is a wonderful resource for beginners.
