Popular Post Charlie E Posted March 11, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) James McAvoy, as Tumnus, from The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe. Seemed right to take this picture in the woods. If you're not familiar, Tumnus is a faun. Sort of half goat, half man I believe.

Thank you so much....It will take me a lot of practice to do that one... I am such a rookie. I am pretty darn slow, but maybe if I start now I can get it done before her birthday in October! The eyes look really difficult...you really captured that. What was the thickness of the wood you used and the type of blade(s)....

What was the thickness of the wood you used and the type of blade(s).... Thanks again I will download it...mc You're welcome! I used 1/2" Sycamore and #1 and #3 Flying Dutchman Ultra Reverse blades. I like using thicker wood but that's just a personal preference. I start with the eyes since they're usually one of the most challenging/fragile areas and if you mess them up it's time to start over. I'm pretty slow myself but that can be a plus I suppose. A very talented craftsman friend of mine once told me, "Try to make it perfect, and it usually turns out pretty good."
