Not going to be able to post any progress pics for some time because I'm studying for a certification test for work. However, purchased the B&D mouse sander with 33 attachments with advice from Watango and man, that thing works great for its price. Didn't bring my chisels down to the shore for the 4th so I just sanded for the weekend off instead.

Not sure what to do with the teeth. After sanding it out, it looks almost comic book style with one solid tooth and I love how smooth it is. Not sure whether to make individual teeth (partially afraid I'll mess it up or make it look worse). What do you guys think?

All that's left is the hard stuff - face/eyes/headdress. I take the test at the end of the month so hopefully I'll make up for lost tiki time and crank this bad boy out before winter rolls around.
