Geez, Benz. One of these days, you'll get the hang of this carving thing!
Tremendous tusk, man. Always a huge kick to check in on your stuff.
Hope your summer is/was a godd'un.
All the best, buddy~

Amazing details! fabulous spiral with curve smooth!!!... I think it should be as pleasant to the touch's than to the eyes... I think also what this batch of horn tusk wart bring you most challenge and pleasure for carving.
Cheers and keep up the nice work, too modest man!
Jérôme.

Thanks Jerome, I guess I'd better step it up a notch as I see that Beautiful Box is nearing completion. How do you make those joints so invisible? Glad you like this guy.
