New guys are looking great! The details always get washed out when I photograph stuff that's not stained too. I really like the guy with the tongue. Can't wait to see them all sanded and stained!

Wow Tiki Duddy, those are awesome! That full body guy is really cool. I can't wait to see the bottom half! Just wait until you stain them, with that ficus it's like something magic happens! You're doing such a great job. I'm looking forward to seeing more!

oooooh yEAH Booyy!!! They are maturing in style and detail and proportion. By the time you are 18, you will be far advanced if the tools are there. Your eyes and hands have the capacity. You just need the right tools.
Maybe we need a secret Santa program for this year 
Very cool, very cool.

Hey TD! Great start with that wood. That one with the tongue is really good. Looks like you're just about ready for another log shipment. Cannot wait to see those guys all sanded up and pretty with a new coat of stain and some shine.
Carve it up man!
Buzzy Out!

Happy to see you've done some super carvings. Really nice.
I love the state you have reached with your tiki on first pix because at this point, everything is possible 
Benjamin.

Hello all. thanks again for the great comments.
mieko- thanks alot, yea i rarely get good pictures. this time it wasent that bad though.
zaya- hey its great to have your comments. the lower half is pretty much done now. i just need to sand and shave the legs down a bit. i still need to buy some good stain. im deciding on what shade im going to do.
clarita- thank you alot. always good to have some kind words
Mctiki- hey man the words mean alot. yes im hoping to get some new tools for my birthday in a few days here. thanks
tikidav- yea the "no fear" thing is good but it can cause problems sometimes to lol. usually when i start not thinking what can happen i end up catching my hand with a blade or taking a good chunk of wood out i didnt mean to. thank you
Buzzy- hey man thanks alot. im about to start the third piece of ficus today. im still thinking up ideas for him. i got a kind of new one but im not too sure if it will work out. we will have to see.
benella- well thanks alot. it is true if you think you can do it you will be able to WAY easier than if you have doubts. it you totaly think you can you cant go back and you dont hesitate to carve it deep.
well thanks all of you very much. im going to post more as soon as i can. untill then ill see you all around.

Nice job so far Duddy. Keep working the wood, you are showing a lot of progress and this
one looks like it will turn out pretty well. Are you using a hook knife or are you
"whittlin'?
