Just keep pushing forward, try to learn something from each piece, and above all HAVE FUN. If it was easy, it wouldn't be any fun cause everyone could do it. And if you break something or tear it up real bad, start another. Stay positive. And as for Benz, nobody should look at his results in stone as those that can be achieved by a novice. He is no novice and as Paipo said, he could carve anything from nothing in half a day. Enjoy Ben, watch Ben, but please do not compare yourselves to Ben. The artistic journy is inside of you, not what someone else can do. -Gman
