Hey y'all! Well I had to slam this one out, was drying too quickly and cracking, and parts falling off etc. So I rushed to get 'er done and put a thick coat of poly on it, to seal what moisture's left in it.
First a final photo of the Moai's with their base's attached.

SEEKS: Yeah me loves red cedar, now if I could only find a GOOD piece of one!
CLARITA: Thanks, and here ya go...
TIKI F1: Cool man, thanks!
GMANG: Watsuppp bradda?! Wellll started out lookin ok, now... na-so-much. Could of been better. I can only hope to do something detailed and intense like you Maori's, when I can get a good piece of log! No knots, no sap, no bugs...rot etc etc. I have 2 more pieces of the same red cedar to work on. They are less knotty. I tried the worst first, and kept a simple design. Now I know what I'm in for on the other pieces.
BENZO: C'mon Benz that's not a LANCELOT! It's an Arbortech woodworker...I love it...

Before the toe fell off...
