Will - had I known I get such positive feedback, I would have posted it sooner. I hope to minimize the black eye on the mask...I'll be experimenting with new skills so we'll see...
Aloha - you can always carve the right hand...
BigT - check your PMs
CapJ - thanks. I'm still a long way from finishing these new ones but hope to have something ready shortly.

Thanks Clarita.
I thought I would try sanding one down. Been working on this guy for several months. He is 24 inches tall.
