I left that owl as is and went and carved a wood wizard, carved the same style as the owl. I carve the make it up as you go method, that is why I mentioned I plan on taking up the pencil and carve the next character ,in the round. I am making myself some different carving knives/tools, more directed toward small detail blades. I can rough out with my bigger carving utensils but the fine stuff needs smaller blades.
