Morbid, but well done.

Too much empty space around the carving, detracting from the focus. It would be better to crop off the excess and make the carving the most dominant part of the photo.

doesn't look carved to me, more like it's put together from small bits of wood.

While a bit crudely carved, I see carving in the eye and neck areas, as well as the curves of the head and shoulders...

It would have been a much stronger image if you hadn't cut off the left ear...

The subject and composition are nice, but I think the harsh lighting detracts from the image.

I really like the shadows but figured most here wouldn't care for it much. I am considering re-shooting, after all this is about winning not necessarily what I like.
