BlueSage Carving post - Tiki Carving

This was my second piece and I carved it one night with the blade on my Leatherman. I finished it with some Spar urethane. I had trouble getting a close up that wasn't over exposed and blurry. The final piece is larger than the previous one. Maybe 3 or 4 inches tall. This was done in eucalyptus and finished with some spar urethane. I used a carving knife set I bought at walmart, but the wood was so hard I didn't get the depth I wanted. This was an experiment to see how a 3 faced tiki might look. I was inspired by hindu art. And finally all three of them together, with special disco lighting! [ Edited by: BlueSage 2007-07-03 01:51 ]
