Very cool carving there.

You should definitely check it out; at $120/year it's definitely worth every cent. It's not necessarily just the equipment, but the classes. For equipment, you just need a dremel and a few bits and you'll be set for most basic stuff, but learning to use those bits is tricky.

The thing with wood working is that it can be tedious. Even that small piece I did for my friend took about an hour and a half, including the sketching and prep. I had to take a few breaks since my hand was cramping from holding the dremel for so long haha.

Here's a sketch-up of a relief I'm starting on today:
