That's rather presentable Dave. As you said, after some more "cleaning up" it should be close to perfect.
Cheers,

Rough shaping complete....
Quite a bit of clean-up, and edge rounding to do yet before I use this carving to pour a new mold.
Not identitical, by a long stretch, but I am far from being a Bill Short.

All the re-working is coming along pretty well so far. Looks like I am ripping far more off both sides than I planned, but like the direction it's going in.... Still pretty much a train wreck, not ready for show at this point.
Need a break from all that, so I began a new carving this evening.
I really like and admire Bill Short's carvings, so I'm going to take a shot at one of my favorite carvings from his SOS (still under construction)....

Decided to go back to hard maple for this one because of the fine detail required.

This little wreath is one carving created for the starboard side that I didn't plan to use but on time. Unfortunately, I didn't make a mold from the original and now must re-carve for the port side.....

Greg.... Believe it or not, I find myself cleaning as I go now.
Has it become real fetish?
I really don't need a "fetish" at my age!
