Started woodcarving a few weeks back. I want to do a series of different mushrooms. Any advice is appreciated.
Can anyone tell me why my carving has become fuzzy, cost its oil-finish and stained accents, and how to avoid this? See my profile for the before photo. Is it because of birch oxidation? Did I not sand fine enough? Thanks.

Basic tools for begginers

Hi! I've been following this thread for some time and i've been watching youtube videos on woodcarving and it seems very interesting!

I'd like to try it but I get lost in all the types of tools and sizes and I don't really feel like buying 100 diferent sizes for the same type of tool until I truly know that I enjoy it as much as I think I would. Plus, I cant really afford buying a lot of tools at once...

So my question is: what basic tools do you recommend, and what sizes are used the most?

Edit: I'd like to carve little figures
