You and I seem to be walking the same road. I bought this one too and can't imagine anyone wanting to do small figures not getting a lot out of it. I've just finished reading the Refsal book and Price's book is on the top of the pile right now.

Another book I got (told you I was a book fiend! LOL!) was "Cartooning the Head and Figure" by Jack Hamm. Because I'm wanting to do caricature type flat plane figures I thought it would be a good reference book.
Don't know this one but I'll check it out.

Freehand drawing is not my strong point (not that carving is either!)
Take away my straight edge and I can't draw anything :-)

I made it in full size.
