Hi Big Daddy,
thanks
the beetle is mine and yes, some hours of work are on it but it's a cool little riding
machine.
Yes i promise you i will restart my carving works very soon
can't wait to end some other tikis
Aloha

Hi Conga,
here some more pics of the devil and some other crazy ones,
the guys there, in the alpes named HERRGOTTSSCHNITZER that seems " Carvers of God "
normaly they do only carvings like Jesus, Jesus at the cross, Biblepersons and persons
frome the mountains, Hunters, Famers and so on
But one of them are very crazy and his house is full of devils, monsters ......no TIKIS
but unfortunatly closed

Happy new Year to all artists here on TC
here some update pics - hope you enjoy
Surfintikin,Aweulekuula,Ben thanks for your visit
Benzart : the wood i use now is a special wood from the Alpes in Italie, grows only over 1400 m high in the mountains and smells very, very sweet - its named "Zirbelkiefer" a sort of pine
since i have this wood at home we have this smell in all the rooms
mahalo
