I think it would make a nice panel in a solid wood door. Rustic kinda of guy anyway! Nice job.

The greatest thing about no pattern, you can be one 100 percent sure it is unique and creative. Great carving.

He looks a little sad Daniel. Maybe he just needs a hug . I think you did a terrific job. It's exciting to break away from a pattern and do something from one's own imagination.
