It was done nearly all the way with chisels... no power tools. I only used the arbortech power chisel for the teeth and the stomach "muscles". He's about 6' tall.. standing by the front door greeting visitors. He's got a little relief-Maori on his head. I ordered some paua shell "veneer" for the eyes.. didn't seem like the one to try real shell inlay. I'll add that when it arrives.
