I've been playing around trying my hand at some handcarves. Starting from the top: 1 - first one I tried, I'm pleased with the way it came out, but I did have some issues with it. 2 - corrected the issues from the first one, now I need to get it to swim. This one will be the test model, looks like there is going to be a lot of r & d going on with it. 3 - again corrected some issues from the second one in the manor in which it gets built. I feel some progress has been made and lessons learned. Maybe in about a year I'll have made some progress and gotten them to swim and catch.
