Advice on carving faces?

Posted: 15 Apr 2021 10:57 AM PDT

I usually carve animals and nature inspired items, but I would like to get into carving little art dolls (and at one point would love to try making a marionette), but I'm having a really hard time carving a human face. I know this will be something that is mostly practice, but are there any resources anyone here could recommend to help me in the process? Video, books, articles, I'll take any type of media to study. Thank you in advance!

Wood Bangle carving breaks

Posted: 15 Apr 2021 05:16 AM PDT

I've been following a guide on how to make a Wood Bangle... all going well however it cracked in 2, I glued it back together, but then it broke again 4 (not the glue joints though).

I am trying to carve out the bangles from a thicker fresh walnut branch (15-20cm diameter). Using the natural rings of the branch for strength. But after the piece dried for about a week, it feels very brittle. I can crack it with my hands.

Image is of the still intact bangle of the 2 I am making. Currently trying to glue the other one.
