Phase III - Picture one is of the cracked curb toward the front of the scene.
Picture 2 is the carved splines on the lamppost. Picture 3 is the concrete cracking radiating out from each corner of the lamppost base plate. Picture 4
is of the almost completed face minus the hat which will be added. Hope to make some good progress this weekend as I want it to be an entry in the Mansfield, Ohio show in two weeks. I know this is going a little slow but as I said, I am only a half-fast carver ;O).

Thank you one and all for your kind words of encouragement. I hope to accomplish enough this weekend to make another post Sunday or Monday night. Again, thanks for having a look see. Sorry, didnt mean to scare ya Tucker, but I assure you no Mack truck is involved in the making of this scene ;O).
