Great start Polynesiac, looks like your hooked! The palm in question is definitelly a Mexican Fan Palm, i think... A good way to strip the frawns off is a utility blade (razor blade tip). The only way I've been able to get detail from palms, is to use a dremmel. Since the tool is spinning, it burns/ polishes the fibers which kind of solidifies them like below: Good luck and keep carving!
