camano ridge Report post Posted November 30, 2013 Are you refering to the tool marks in the beveled areas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
electrathon Report post Posted November 30, 2013 Overall for a beginner your work looks good (hence the above comments). I think you are referring to the tooled/bevel marks around the perimeter of the carving. The main answer is "the angle and how hard you hit your tools". A little bit of tipping makes a lot of difference. Also, some tools have a slightly different shape to the face and that slight difference matters a lot.
