Aloha.
Thanks, everyone for visiting me here in my little shack at tc and for your support.
I had not much sparetime within last week, so the boar is still not finished.
In the meantime let me introduce you a slightly bigger tiki I made a couple of month ago.

I got this big appletree log for free together with my workbench about a year ago. Thanks ebay. Its former owner told me that there got to be some wood worms in it. And it had a big crack on one side.
But it was totally dry so i took of 1.5" all around and cut out the crack as good as possible.

Progress pics:




It took me about 30 hrs for start to end.
Apple is hard and I refused to use powertools except on the sides and for sanding.





The last one is for size comparision. It´s, where it stands now. Together with my youngest daughter. Pic-quality is a bit crappy again.

Thanks for watching.
