Thanks for the great feedback!

I´ve taken the recommendations from G-man and carved deeper and with cleaner cuts.
It has really worked out well. I´ll post pics of it as soon as I´m able to get into the action again.

What I mean is that I´ve been forced to do a break from the carving lately,
something that has been sort of a downer, because the tool that
I´ve been using has lost a small piece.
The angle grinder I´ve used started to vibrate way more than safe
and got steamy as a red hot chili taco, so I had to throw in a time out.

But today I´m back, with a new tool. I bought a Black & Decker 1200W angle grinder with a dead mans switch
this afternoon, and it has quite a nice handle to!
So I´m very happy and excited and can´t wait to see this log erected...hehe...

I now have a job to do.
I´ll keep you all posted about the development.
And in the meantime I´ll paste up some of my previous sketches for this project.

I have to keep carving

Well, It COULD go good...

As long as I keep my tongue straight...

Or else I could encounter experiences really out of this world...

Reeeeally spaced out stuff man...

Outta the head kinda...

Or I might meet some really strange guys like this...

And wild cannibal animals...

With weird head gear...

That turn into steel robots...

And that change color from red to green...

Nææææ!!!!!

I´ll think normal tikis are good enough...

Normal Tikis ay?!!!
