  I&apos;ve wanted to do this video for SOOO Long. &nbsp;This will be the first in a series. &nbsp;This one is all about setting up a head and a basic face. &nbsp;I&apos;m gonna put up quite a few (hopefully) mini videos that don&apos;t have intro&apos;s/outro&apos;s that are gonna be straight and to the point. &nbsp;Moustache/beards, hair, noses, Eyes/Brows to help give folks tools to really dig in and start a caricature carving journey while still only using 1x1 blocks. &nbsp;It&apos;s basic, but it works and best of all.... &nbsp;IT&apos;S FUN! &nbsp;I&apos;ll have this and Subsequent videos in their own Caricature Carving playlist on the playlist tab as i release them. <br> <br>This carving is done on a 2.5 inch long piece of 1 inch by 1 inch basswood. <br> <br>Want to help support the channel, and maybe get your name in the end credits of the new videos? Head over to Patreon, and you&apos;ll have my undying love and appreciation. &nbsp;Seriously! <br><a href="https://www.patreon.com/johnnythelayton">https://www.patreon.com/johnnythelayton </a><br> <br>New to woodcarving? &nbsp;-- <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5Y3iY4eMDYiCc0fZqROzEcg29A3igNOu">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5Y3iY4eMDYiCc0fZqROzEcg29A3igNOu </a><br>Tool Talk (Videos about Carving tools!) -- <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5Y3iY4eMDYgZfBZvutFOTBqd-8PVwGAg">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5Y3iY4eMDYgZfBZvutFOTBqd-8PVwGAg </a><br>Want some Carving Memes to Tickle your funny Bone? -- <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pUXAlZ3NRI&amp;list=PL5Y3iY4eMDYj_0LY2H8Yh6ftr87c-zIXd">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pUXAlZ3NRI&amp;list=PL5Y3iY4eMDYj_0LY2H8Yh6ftr87c-zIXd&amp;index=1 </a><br> <br>Thanks for stopping by! &nbsp; <br><a href="https://linktr.ee/JohnnyTheLayton">https://linktr.ee/JohnnyTheLayton </a><br> <br>Tools Used: Basswood 1x1 stock, carving knife, strop, and compound. <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/whittling">#Whittling</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/woodcarving">#woodcarving</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/woodcarver">#woodcarver</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/carticaturecarving">#carticaturecarving</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/woodart">#woodart</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/caricature">#caricature</a>

  Man I like your videos. Very informative, relaxing and entertaining. Like watching a Bob Ross video, only with tattoos and woodcarving.the music in the background is a perfect level also.
