Carvings from Frog Island Tikis - Tiki Carving

C cy Tiki Socialite Gresham, Oregon Joined: Mar 10, 2011 Posts: 1666	C cy Posted posted on Fri, Nov 29, 2019 2:30 PM I love multiple days off as I can work on tiki instead of actually having to make a living. I was able to put a coat of paint on this one before it started to get too cold here in the Pacific NW. I had a leftover piece of mahogany from another project that I wanted to use so I enlarged a quick sketch and started carving. This 42 inch tall log has quite a few soft and unusable sections which adds up to personality. My small carving chainsaw is finally working again which enables me to undercut the chin section. This side was harder and less flakey so gets a bit more detail. I started on the base, otherwise I get burned out on the rest and neglect it. [ Edited by: cy 2019-11-29 14:37 ]
