hey thanks all. means alot
little lost tiki- hey thanks. yes im supprised how many i have got done so far. and im not too sure about the envy part haha because i see AMAZING work here on TC.
ben- yes i like this guy's face too. i wasnt sure what to do with his mouth but it just came together at the end better than i thought it was going to. the reason his nose is like that is because there was a more elevated strip running down the wood and i thought "hmmm, that would make for a unique piece in the face" so i made it his nose and im quite happy i did.
zaya- hey i actually think that i was meant to carve haha. well i do it alot better than i thought i could ever. i know i would not be as happy now if i had not ever picked up that first piece of wood and started to carve. i would be wasting my time on something useless or on nothing at all. so therefore i think i made a good decision here. and ive kept with it and still feel strongly about carving so im pretty sure im gonna be doing this for a long time and that its not just a "phase"

well thank you for looking and thank you for the compliments i really appreciate all of you.
i also have another tiki done but i cant get a picture of it at the moment.
