Your carving is just beautiful, and rounding that tongue IMHO will be the perfect solution. Are these really your first carvings? As a sidebar...in Tibet, they stick their tongues out at first meeting to show you that their tongues are NOT green...that they're not the devil (who has a green tongue), but a friend. And you're supposed to do it back for the same reason. It could make for a tricky cross cultural experience. :lol:
