The Road Agent

I came across this book cover while surfing around the web and thought it would really make a great caricature carving.  I really like the shape of the mask as it gives a real sense of evil and danger.  I'll probably change a few things  but will stick to the pose shown.  What do you think?

I think seeing you do the mask/hands/arms would be a real education, a technique we could all use.

It would be interesting to have to convey expression via parts other than the face, a real challenge. I am sure you areup to it, we urely will learn some new techniques along the way..just make sure he does't rob MY bank, I need that money.

Got my knives sharpend and am ready to carve along with you. Really like the poster and how that bandit looks, but will be eager to see how you'll adapt/adopt things to your carving.

This would be a great carving. I really appreciate your videos, have learned a lot. Would this be a bust or full figure? It would make a unique bust.
