Thank you all for your entries that encourage me to do my best.

Paipo- Thank you. I saw the conjoined like his conscience that can't speak ( no mouth) but thinks a lot :)

Queen Kamehameha- Thank you too. I got the smooth by sanding a lot (let's see Dr Benzart lessons) but It was not enough everywhere and then I put wax for pine wood furnitures that I found by my mom :) (thanks mom).

Mc Tiki- Thanks for the words. I unfortunetely don't surf 'cause in Paris there is no sea... but I have kept an admiration for surfers 'cause when I tried to surf I've learned that it is not as easy as when you look at videos of Kelly Slater.
The sex wax is a part christmas gifts for the husband of my wife's sister which often surfs in the summer holidays. For my part, I did a lot of skateboarding when I was 17 years old. Now I'm 25 and I know that each brocken arm would be bad for my work.

HaiKai: Danke schön für deine Komplimente. I think I am still far from catching you but it gives me Hope.
You incited me to post the pix of my moai and you were right 'cause it helps me a lot. And now, I am completely obsessed by carving.

Dr Benzart- I did not listen enough to your advice about sanding especially under the mouth, so, I've paied the price by spreading the wax but I think we don't see it clearly on the pix. :wink:
I have to add that you were such a great influence for me and that i've learned a lot by seing your daily posts. Thank you.

Thanks you all.
I'll post pix of my next project... very soon.

Ben.
