For anyone who's ever had trouble rendering the human face,
the newly expanded and revised edition of Carving the Human Face,
is your ticket to creating realistic portraits. From a world champion
carver known for his lifelike busts, this updated book includes new
patterns and photographs, in addition to valuable information on
techniques for creating realistic hair, facial features, realistic
skin and muscle, hats and head dresses. Phares provides tips for
fixing common anatomical errors, and information about proper tool
use. An exhaustive step-by-step project, that includes over 350
demonstration photos, guides you from a block of butternut to
a finished mask of a Native American warrior. A gallery of
Jeff Phares' amazing work will inspire you!
