Hey Will, welcome to TC. Good job there. I haven't carved poplar. It is very white isn't it! :P What did you use to carve him with?

Thanks for the welcome.

Yes, the poplar is very "white". The trees are very fast-growing and can become a nuisance. I had to remove this tree because it was becoming a hazard to my house.

Currently, the tools I have are an old 1/2" straight wood chisel, a utility knife and a 4" angle grinder with 60 grit flap discs.
