Tackled the torso, I kept finding I made mistakes in similar places across the surface. Could be the density of the wood, the sharpness of the blade or a dozen other factors, bloody annoying though. I’m going to have to work out some way of making repairs.
Anyway made some progress, added some nice details. I love how much shaping I can get with the hand tools. Also I using my industrial carver with an oversized blade to create what I can only describe as stretchy–fabric look!
So here we are, didn’t get as far as the arms…
