Soapstone + Other Stuff! - Tiki Carving

Not so moai now (well never really was), though still with some remaining elements (although no mouth. Perhaps that could be my signature?). As you can probably tell, I like my carvings to be rather minimalist - probably to cover up the fact that I'm not very good - although, as Benzart correctly pointed out (on Tama's thread somewhere), moai are deceptive. They look simple, but are actually quite difficult to get right. That's why I've tried my own version. Artistic license and all that.
