Step 8. Draw in the outside leaves and, with the band saw, cut the waste wood away so that leaf forms protrude all around the head as shown in Fig. 7. Step 9. Carve in the eyebrows and add detail to the ^Seaves that make up the hair and beard. Step 10. Sketch in the eyes. Carve the eyelids and make deep holes for the irises (see Fig. 8). Step 11.

With the relief carving in this issue, we recommended that you seal the wood to avoid uneven coverage of the stain. Here, the variations are part of the effect, creating an aged look.**
