Not a bad looking pipe, but I feel like it's an apple masquerading as a prince.

Yes it is a little more appleish, but the guy who wanted it wanted one like I had made before. He is very happy with it and just messaged me today to tell me he has 14 pipes, some higher end estates and a handmade Sav. He says by far the best smoking pipe he has. I'm glowing over here :D He's already asked if I could do another pipe for him in the near future.

Very nice, Doug.
The bowl symmetry front to back and side to side is outstanding.

Thanks Doc, you know last month marked my 1yr Ann'y for pipe-making. I had no clue that I would enjoy it this much.

You are a quick study, and are doing very well.
Last month was my 3 year Anniversary this century, :)
