Another nice carving. I enjoyed Gene's tutorial also. I have done one and know how you felt but I sure like the results.

Thanks Ken. I carved another two today as part of a 'trio' I'll get painted tomorrow hopefully! It seemed a bit easier on the second one. I marked pencil lines at the front, back and the sides of the head which seemed to help keep me focused a bit better.
