Alright! Got back to some carving! Finished up the "Heads Up" tiki except for the poly/sanding/poly ... now to finish up the detailed Lono and then on to something else a bit more whimsical!
Thanks for stopping and Have a Great Day!

I really like the seperated head idea. May have to borrow that one.

DUDE!!!
I love it. Especially digging the asymmetrical facial features - gives him a sort of writhing grimace.
Awesome stuff

Thanks for the comments everyone! I had fun with this guy .... I'm going to do another whimsical tiki next ... called the "top knot tiki" ... the wife found some nice bamboo poles for a buck each so I'm going to use a couple chunks on the top knot. I'm also anxious to use the gray stain that Will and Jeff showed us so am going to chop out a Moai too .... fun stuff!

Here's an in progress shot of the "top knot" tiki ..... he will have a bamboo stick thru his nose (that's why it's so BIG) and another bamboo stick tied into his top knot ...
Thanks for stopping and Have a Great Day!

Thanks guys ..... after an exhausting long weekend of fishing and camping, I got back on the chisels and made some more rough chops on the top knot tiki .... caught quite a few fish up in the Eastern Sierra's too!
Thanks for stopping and Have a Great Day!
