Default first (finished) flat plane

took a while, and after a few aborted attempts thanks to the puppy here is my first flat plane attempt. Thanks to Arleen at Woodcarvers workshop for the pattern. My version of her Amish Guy, now the Amish Tourist visiting the hive...

You're on a good start with the flat planes.

It's funny, but I see a leprechaun when I look at him. It must be because of those I saw at the St-Patrick's day here in Quebec... But I just remembered that leprechaun don't wear a beard normally.
