Hey folks,

OK, here we go. Since taking a class at the Davis School of Moko Design, I've acquired a few new tools, some new techniques, and spent a lot of time drawing Moko designs. I used much of what I learned in the classroom on my project today. I'm hoping I passed my first test. We'll see what the professor says......

Here are some progress pics I took during the day and some more I took after I finished for the night. It's difficult to get good pics of the Moko as the flash washes it out. I spent most of the time on the leg Moko, stepping and grooving the top knot, and detailing the fingers. I still have to work on his toes and hands and need to inlay the abalone yes. I hope you like him.

Thanks for looking....and Ben, thanks for sharing.
