[@stantilton2191]

As a newer carver this was helpful. I try to watch them all and pick what works for me. Fresh subscription, thank you.

Thank you 🙏

I would “die” for a full tutorial of your beautiful gnome and his big ears!!!!! Please consider doing it!

[@thesomersetwhittler]

Thank you 🙏

[@calmwatersailor1947]

Thank you for showing this. There are so many eye tutorials which are great but not for the little 1” x 1” characters. This method is just perfect for those 👁👍

Nice video. I really love your work. Each one has a lot of personality and it’s because you do things like add a bag under an eye and a squint. Well done.
