Hey all. Been working on a super big sign/sticker job that ended taking a day and a half, so I haven't felt like spending any more time on the computer. In addition, all I feel like doing is carving. Like someone flipped a switch and I cannot turn it off.

I'm ten posts, two emails, and a few Pms behind...

I'll knock out the updates parts of the posts, at least.

In between making a bunch of signs yesterday, I started the upper body of this guy:

a little closer

Next I blocked in the legs. I didn't want to carve through the knot in the log, so I put his on top of it.

I did a ton of evening out with the hookknife and then started the mouth last night

This is what he was like when I woke up

I was going to work on an order today, but it was cloudy, I was tired, and i wanted to work on this guy still

Started the nose and still did a bunch more cleaning

Close up

I also formed the back of the headress

And that brings us to the present:

More work on the nose and blocking out the headress

Face

Still trying to get the legs to look right

Floor update:

Now i just have everything else to do...
Buzzy Out!
