Be gentle, it's only my second pine carve. 8 hrs into it. The stains will bring the details that are lost from a distance due to the grain flow and the color at present.

Thanks so much Ben, Surf, Marcus. Mr. Tiki G introduced me to the tools he utilizes a couple of weeks back and let me tell ya, I feel like an idiot knowing what I know now. Ya can't make the best round surfaces using linear tools lol.
Tiki G, we'll take you up on the dust storm @ your bungalow this time.

Thanks everyone. I just stained this log and it looks like ass. I hate it. I used dark walnut to try and hide some of the grain. It looks worse than I imagined it would. I'm goin back to palm woods. Miffed! I'll post pics if your remotely interested. Just too pissed right now.

Allright JP/Rodeo here the beast is....I was my own worst critic first (lol) This will be my last yellow pine carve. Ben knows! He's been there with this stuff as has Tiki G! Stuff is nasty. Big, but nasty. JP, the eyes are not my origination. I morphed this log from many different designs.
Camera was a little condensed from being inside, sorry.
