Woodworking Project:: Update

Description

I've been working for weeks on this, suffering many injuries to my hands which I do not regret in the slightest with how this turned out. A lot of my sweat and blood went into this at some point or another and I'm really proud of myself as this is one of my first carvings, the second being the soap ring pictured in the background.

This piece had to be edited heavily in order for me to do it effectively and efficiently. That being said, it differs greatly from the original drawing in some aspects. So, many band-aids and profanities later, I give you my latest creation, A zombie bust, inspired by Alphonse Mucha, carved into poplar with hand tools.

I am still learning how to carve with the grain, thankfully poplar is quite forgiving, however in my next project I will be very careful about this. So enjoy for now, and let me know what you think.

**The words on the sign read "Je t'adore" or I adore/love you, in French.**

(poplar wood, 13" x 10"ish lol)
