Ok I'm being serious now, I think.
Are you that good at carving to attempt what you sketched on your tablet? Do you have proper carving tools? What kind of wood will you use, because I don't believe the briarwood you used on your first pipe would be soft enough for you to carve a figural type pipe, at least not easily. It seems like cherry or even olive would look beautiful and be much easier to work with.
My dad did some wood carving when I was a kid and made some beautiful pieces including a number of very detailed decoys with the grain of the feathers carved onto the surface, but he had a lot of carving tools and they weren't cheap. My dad is the type of guy who gets a wild hair up his ass to try something different, then reads a few books and does it. This mentality has served him well over his life. He is a master computer programmer and taught himself starting in the late 1960's and that lead to his own insurance software development business and my career as well although I never had the desire to be a programmer like him.
