I made the eye bags smaller,defined the lips a little,pushed the forehead back and cut in the cheeks a little more. I sure am learning a bunch.

Hi Vince, he's looking really good, I like the way the lips turned out. For, me that is the hardest part right now. Lips look easier, than they are to carve, you did a super job. Keep those updates coming!

Wink Re: A little more

Well I am almost done. just need to do the nose and some clean up. I am going to oil it up real good then seal it up. the last piece I did in this ash I stained and this dry ash sucked it up.I do not want it to be to dark. I think the oil will make it about right. I HOPE!!! Vince
Oh YA get the twins again today so I only get to work when I am not chasing them.
