My First Post - Tiki Carving

A Alldo Member So Cal Joined: Jul 15, 2004 Posts: 59	A Alldo Posted posted on Mon, Jan 16, 2006 5:59 PM OK Here is my first attempt at a lono style tiki. I'm using a nice Ash log that Iv'e had for some time. Started carving and realized that the head is Way too big for the body so I had to cut of all the work that I spent hours on. I then drew out one side to make sure it was going to work and I think it will be ok. Worked a little bit on the legs and torso and mouth then called it a day. It is really difficult to carve legs and arms in 3D. Can you guess what the mouth is going to be......That's right a wave. A sick dredging peak that I will mind surf for a long time. Comments and suggestions are appreciated.
