Default I am trying for a thumbnail

This probably won't work but I have sized my roughout to Bob's cue in sizing.. so here's hope this will work.. If it does, you can see I am not quite through as I have to peg everything to the base and bag... Charlotte

Yipeeeeeeee!!! It worked.. thanks to Bob and everyone that helped... This is a Rossiter Roughout and then I went face first as if I can't carve a face , I said well, I will just put paper clay over it..lol but maybe this face will work... so I just kept carving away... Thanks again, everyone for your instructions.. This means a lot to me to have good friends to help me.. Charlotte
