[Woodcarver] Woodcarving issues (need some help)

[Maura Macaluso]

 How about a clint eastwood style spaghetti western gunslinger in full regalia,  hat sitting low in front, beady eyes glaring out under the brim, gun belts diagonal on the hips, spurs etc, couple days unshaved w/major attitude, or a fireman in full turnout gear, exhausted and grimy after the fire. neither one a caricature but instead a realistic character study.  Zulu or other warrior type is good also.     Or a very large Pinocchio might be fun
