Hi Ray,

Many reasons for differences of opinions.

Body work is definitely art work where after some time, working as artist, the artists can be graded, for example, from 1 to 10. Sometimes the artist in the 9-10 range can be illiterate or even addicted to alcohol or other things.

Try grabbing 100 young people and after a short course, a few will be natural artists and immediately "start" with body work and be graded as a 9 or 10; some, after a long time, will start as a 1, give up, and might reach a point to be graded as a 2.

Your ability to concentrate, have patience, actually "see" what you are doing, will only be found after you slowly begin with a hammer & dolly ...... getting started on something never done before is always questionable.

In your original statement:

"But do want to try my best, and do a good job." , and with above advice to take your time, something tells me you will succeed.

Can't wait to see the "after" photos.
