First carving, made out of basswood Second, not sure bout the wood, but I found it at a park. Used Iron Oxide, Charcoal, and Coffee to stain it. Third carving, made out of the same log that I used for carving 2, it was a very awkward shape with 2 burls, but instead of tossing it, I managed to make this, haha. Used coffee for the staining. Fourth carving, again not sure bout the kind of wood. Found it in the background though. VERY heavy, VERY hard. I chiseled out the top of the head, and hammered some copper sheet in it, so you can light his head on fire. More carvings to come. Finding good wood to carve is pretty hard unfortunately
