I just looked at your website, very nice. I like the last tiki you are carving, it has a lot of character, good job.

Thanks Hiltiki! the varnish works real well with that last guy.
Alright, it's about time i bring out the chainsaw here so for practice today i decided to cut up a small stump. i intended just to chop it up a bit and use the new chisels a bit on it but i ended up having too much fun to stop, so here's what i've been up to today...
i think i'll make him into an actual piece!

Thanks Seeks and Surfin!
alright, here's a little more progress. started on the face a bit.
that's what i've got done so far.
gotta do some more on the face, shape up his ass and feet, then the small detail!
i've also got some ideas for hair once i've got him all done. we'll see how it goes!
lets hope well...
More soon!

Thanks Seeks! i sure wish i could do the big guys as good!
ok, got some paints the other day. really want to start painting, and the painters here on TC are just so inspirational i just had to give it a shot!
attempt at a self portrait. was looking in the mirror to my side.
my skin may be a little red/pinkish and my hair may nearly be green but im happy with it, got a feel for it even though i need to improve on my color mixing abilities!
i wanted to paste on my thread here first a bit before i make a 'other crafts' thread. if i do.
That's it for now!
