Hey y'all!

Thanks pdrake: its taken me a while to get things that simple. A matter of 'seeing' forms more clearly in your mind & being able to transfer that cleanness to a real piece.

GMan: keep smilin'

JP: adds new meaning to feeling 'satisfied' upon completion of a piece like that!!

Cheers KTD!

Well, took today as a 'play-day' & started a new piece. Thought Id take a leap into something more sculptural & sat down to draw up the Lono...

And ended up with this... My first ever Moai!

Took a munt at it with my heaviest grinding wheel, went as far as I could before stopping. Now what the hell am I doing..?

Damn, thought this would be a lot easier...

But after a cruisey an enjoyable day Im hopeful...

Some bloody tricky wee angles going on in those guys. Knew it wouldnt be easy but jeez...

Ill keep you posted on this one (a Maori 'mokoed' Moai?) MMM by TTT :)
