Hey all,

Here's a rough out I did tonight after work. I've been working late in the office and not having any sunlight to work with. Tonight I got home and had about a half hour before dark and decided to quickly change clothes, sharpen my carving chain, and try to start a new piece. I worked for about 1.5 hours and it seemed like the only dang light I had was the light from the stars reflecting off my saw bar. Geez. I think I did most of this one by feel. It was scary. Put that in the carving safety post - don't use a chainsaw in the dark. Here are the pics of the rough out. This guy is cedar, 42" tall, and will be Maori tekoteko.

I hope you like him.
