Very nice! I love the baseball player's facial expression.

Good job. The flat plane for some reason is something that I haven't been able to master. Like yours.

Safe carving and God Bless,

Mark

Good job on the flat planes, you got the style well.

I can't decide which of the last two is my favorite...
