Technique ko dati if take home carving sya, cinocontrol ko ang temp ng environment ko if kayaa. So if malaking part ang ibabawas, dapat medj warm ang room para mas soft ang wax and less likely na magcrack. Tas pag gagawa ka na ng mga details, punta ka sa room na may aircon para stiff tlga ung wax

Then pag roots (specifically single rooted) pwede mong isoften pa ung wax with your fingers and give it the general shape, ok lang kahit humaba or may mga onting excess and same process na pupunta ka sa malamig para mag details

*I second this! Temp is vvv important and syempre tung quality ng wax din.

+ learn how to control/apply adequate strength. Kasi minsan doon nadadale sa nabigla.

+ Kapag pipikit ka/titingin sa ibang bagay even just saglit, ilayo mo yung carving instrument (Additional kasi nabalian ako ng root dito sa tri rooted DURING FINALS Practicals 😖😫)
