Here is a carving that I have worked on for the past week. I am pretty happy with most of the facial planes, but I am still thinking about how to do the eyes. I usually carve out the pupil and then make the iris deeper. But I am thinking about adding a "highlight" and I'm not sure exactly where I want to place it in the eye. I want to soften the hair by sanding away some of the lines indicating strands and I am thinking about indicating the shirt by carving some type of eye-let pattern around the neck. I haven't thought much about the base at this point. Comments and suggestions would be welcome!
