 I carve wood to create any image. Lately, my commissions consist largely of replicating a person or animal in wood as a walking stick or bottle stop. My creations do seem to match the photo I am given to reproduce very well. I can answer your questions regarding drawing and wood carving. I do not use chain saws in wood sculptures and cannot answer questions petaining to that.

 1- I can answer the technical questions regarding the planning, directing, drawing, digital inking and coloring (in the Adobe Photoshop CS series) of a comic page. 2- I can give you pointers and critiques to improve your work or the work to be done. 3- I can answer the technical questions of "how to do this effect or that effect on this character of that move" using the Adobe Photoshop. 4- To some moderate extent i can answer the questions regarding plotting for the story, making twists and turns, how to hook and reader. However, the question of; how to imitate the coloring, inking or drawing like this artist or that artist is - NOT - something i can help you with.
