Dear Friends,

Here are som images of my first Moai, a friend from NZ asked me to carve him one and in my research of images I lurked some of our Masters´ works here at TC. Paipo´s and Cabanilla´s works really inspired me A LOT! Thanks for that friends.
So, I´m posting some pictures hoping to receive your comments on him, please if you feel that you must make a critic comment, please, go ahead and feel free to make it. I need to make some cleaning and finish the head holes, I´m doing them by hand because I don´t want to ruin it. Next time I´ll post some pictures of the five tools that I´m using to carve it. I use one chisel and four Stephen Myhre´s number one tool in different sizes. The Moai is 4,9 x 2,1 x 0,8 cm (almost 2 inches tall).




Hope you like him!

Hugs,

Sebas
