Default second carving
i made two of these owls this weekend. i think they came out pretty well, definitely much better than my first carving. my computers camera isnt great and it kind of flattens the detail and you cant really see the claws, sorry about that. let me know what you think.

Good start. do another one, and add a little more detail, then another. This is more interesting than starting out carving a boot. Lots to learn here on the forum that will help you out. nice start

Coming along nice! Add a little color to them and watch them come to life!
