Very nice fish indeed, although i still have a thing for the barbel! I can't decide!

Either way, i'd carve a nice lightly scaled mirror, I love the really dark colours in some of them, that could easily be compared to the colour of oak.

Or failing that, dare i say...an impreza?!

Carve a pillow out of it, then sleep on it and hope to dream up a suggestion by the morning.

Well, at the moment the T-rex skull is still the front-runner, though I'm tempted by the fish.

Carve it into a big block of oak, minimal effort required and leaving you plenty of time to return to posting sh1te in NSR

Enough of the ****** / *****.

How about a realistic fanjita







Splinters could be a real problem though

Good point, but the grain goes all ovver 't' oil - the general trend is from top to bottom. I'm going to do that bit in bas-relief, I think.
