Jolie bernache du Canada, John.
Nice 3D and Scott is happy. Who could ask for more?
Maybe it's a pixel effect from the snapshot but if not, converting vectors to curves and editing some nodes will help smoothing a bit the outline and eliminate artifacts (riddles, shadows) before applying relief.

Thanks for the advise. I'm still not completely happy with my edge trimming, but I'm working on it.

Well you have left me in the dark ages John
I don't seem to get a lot of time to practice these days but even so I should be a lot further forward than I am, not really sure why I find 3D so difficult, I had absolutely no problem what so ever learning 2D. Mind you I was a lot younger then & didn't have this illness I have now
Keep up the good work, always good to see how people are progressing

Uh oh. It’s supposed to be a Canadian Goose.

I think it is actually a Canada Goose. We'd have to look at its passport to determine whether or not it was Canadian.

The Canada goose is also colloquially referred to as the "Canadian goose". {citing American Heritage Dictionary} --Wikipedia
Surely that should be "incorrectly" and not "colloquially". Here in the Great White North (and that is a colloquialism) we refer to them as Canada goose/geese. It seems only non-Canadians who use "the other term" (that's a euphemism).
My "The Oxford Canadian Dictionary" does not mention Canadian goose.

I caught HOLY HECK from my friend's wife in Oz who IS Canadian the first time I mentioned a Canadian Goose like I grew up saying!!
Glad she was half the world away when I said it...and NOT during their visit here!
A little shove from her, and the wheelchair and I would have been swimming IN the beaver pond

So is a Mexican Jumping bean correctly called a “Mexico Jumping Bean”?
Or the US flag called the “America Flag”?
Canadian Goose sure “seems” correct!

Well, I guess we would find it silly to say “Floridian Gator” instead of “Florida Gator”!

Gentlemen,
As I wrote above, it's a "bernache du Canada". This appellation is not negotiable.
Those who do not comply will have to model a poix sauteur du Mexique in movement.
