Default Indian

Using Mark Gargac's tutorial from WCI this is what I came up with. This was my first attempt at carving a realistic face. Hope I have done the tutorial justice. I am going to put it on a base rather than a cork bottle stop though. Thank you Mark for the time you put into the article. It was quite easy to follow. I did start from a square block rather than the rough out which would have been nice but I had the block and figured I may as well use it. I will post more pictures when its all finished.

Good job. Kinda looks like my brother-in-law (a useless sort) the time he tried to borrow money off me.
