Your work is top shelf. The picture with the saw is almost gruesome.

I haven't really looked at this thread before, but I'm glad I did. Your work is amazing! That Moari is incredible. I'm an instant fan.

MArcus, Somehow that saw cutting off his head seems so GORY and Gross. If it weren't such a good carving I might be sick. Oh hell I might just be sick anyway.
Lookin good.

Johnny P and Ben - I couldnt resist taking a picture of that - it appealed to my gory side. Finkdaddy - thanks for checking out my stuff glad you like it. Hewey - sorry I am really trying to perfect my photo skills - he is going to hang from a mirror in an Truck - so it should look pretty cool. Tiki Duddy - welcome to the fold - thanks for the feedback.
I am heading down to wintersun now so I'll be offline for a couple of days - will post some pics of my setup down there when I get back.

More progress of the shrunken head without hair. Had a very busy weekend down at Wintersun and spent too much time talking - not enough carving- and I didnt get a chance to get a photo of my setup - but I know that other people did so I will chase up some pics to post. Hewey I think I have improved my photo skills this time.
