Many thanks Basement, Paipo and Tikigap.
You make some nice points Paipo. I agree that the progress shots are very important
in seeing the possibilities with whatever we are working in, wood, bone or stone. They
give us a chance to follow the creation with the creator, like Finkdaddy's latest effort.
The anticipation of a little update is a large part of the journey. Thank you and all
fellow carvers for the little nudges along the way.
So, we journey on in the Northwoods.
I didn't have a real plan when I started the big guy here, just to let it evolve. We've
gone from something that started as a sorta Moai with Benzart style turned down lips,
and now I am seeing shades of the Bob Lutz and Charles Rosencrans carvings on pages 250-251
in "The Book"

and then we have this mask...yes he will get a right eye...soon

You all come back now, y'here!
