here is a Moai i carved today out of a hunk of pine i was given. first time using pine. i tried to torch it to make it look old as BK said. i'm not sure i have the right type of torch ( just a standard old propane torch) i didn't know how dark to get it, and it seemed to be splatchy, and un even. so in the end i re-sanded it a little and just stained him. i will keep trying that aging technique i'm sure the more i try it the better it will come out.

well there he is, not the best. he is 18 inches tall and 6 inches in diameter
