i kinda want to see how far i can push little Boba. this whole thing started as a test sample. i got my hands on some really nice pieces of white Florida pine the largest piece is about 3 feet around and 5 feet tall. i saw a video on youtube by rioturban of how he carved a giant tiki and studied how he set out the pattern. so i got the smallest piece of pine to try it on before i even think about cutting in to my huge piece of pine. up till now i have only carved on palms in the style of the 2 in my first picture but that video inspired me to really try to step it up and explode some new ideas and see what i can come up with. i cant stop thinking about it and what i want to do. the last time i felt like that i was making a dragon in welding school. boy did it piss the welding teacher off.lol thinking Darth Vader for the big piece of pine. lol
