Spinner Report post Posted June 10, 2010 Here's the second attempt at getting faces & the female form right...comments, suggestions & tips welcome! This one is about 125% larger than the last one to give myself a little more room to work & experiment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TroyS Report post Posted June 10, 2010 If you REALLY want her to be Vargus like, there is only one option... Al Stohlman's Figure Carving and Figure Carving Finesse books are GREAT books! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MADMAX22 Report post Posted June 10, 2010 Good start, the human figure and face seem to be the hardest art wise to master. You are on to something, go big as you can so your not fighting the detailed small work and the figure itself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hilly Report post Posted June 10, 2010 I am NOT a figure carver by any stretch of the imagination, but I thought that maybe you'd find this useful: Peter Main does faces, too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spinner Report post Posted June 10, 2010 Troy - I knew there were books on the subject just didn't know which ones. Thanks, will check those out. Max - yeah, it's amazing what improvements come naturally just by having room to work! Hilly, thanks - hadn't seen that post yet but those are great notecards to print out and keep nearby.
