Thanks guys!
tikigodz, I'll be staining them tomorrow, but it'll just be a light golden oak to cover that "just carved" whiteness. No sealant on these, except I'm thinking about sealing the tops after this coming summer. They should be fairly dried out by then, and having the top surfaces sealed will prevent rain from soaking in.
Everything else will be allowed to weather.

Today I did a little minor touchup and sanding, added a little bit of detail, then torched and sanded.
Here's what they look like now.

By the way, the owner wanted a Ku sticking out his tongue, that's why it has one.

That big white area on the lips and teeth is the sun.

I'll finish these up tomorrow, and hopefully get some better pics.
