    Likes: The design, the overall depth of relief and the frame details, particularly the depth behind the head and breast. The proportions of the bird are right.
    Dislike: just one, the toes are too long.
    Pity that you don't have more time for this.
    Wood?
    Size?

    Thumbs up

    G'day Behnam and welcome to the forum!! Good to see you here!!

    What a first post. A beautiful piece of work.brava

    Yes , the claws are a little too long, but that does not detract from the overall piece.

    Keep the carvings coming!!!

    Welcome to the forum, I hope you can find the time to visit often.

    A divine carving, with great detail in both the Falcon and frame.

    Very likeable.

    Nicely done, with the head slightly looking towards us...
    Too bad you couldn't find more time. You really should !

    Yes, please come back with more of your beautiful work. I don't mind the slightly longer claw (some of us have it, some don't) it gives it a bit more of an arty perspective. Well done

    first details : it's walnut and size ( 3*30*55 (approx)cm ) .
    I'm not a good designer so all of the design wasn't mine . searching matching and changing ... almost half of it was my design .
    I started it just for a test project but when I see it can be a better thing so I design it part by part and it takes more time , almost 2 weeks (8 hours per day ) but I couldn't work full time so as a hobby it takes 3 months to me .
    after I finished it just put it in closet and after a while bring it for finish . working on toes and claws and coated with lacquer and gifted it . around me is some woods but no carved and finished work . I don't keep them .
    until I present it no one even woodcarvers didn't say anything about claws ! and when I started it I thought that falcons have big claws and for finish I just focus on skin of talon . but thanks for notice it's better to know ideas , just say prefect won't improve me.

    sorry for awful language and thanks for considering
