If you're interested in an original piece of work i do commissions. Just really busy right now."

B Benzart Member Port Saint Lucie, Florida Joined: Jan 09, 2004 Posts: 10397	B Benzart Posted posted on Thu, Aug 12, 2004 9:30 PM Yes it is a different piece and type of wood. I put it in before I shrunk his nose.the nose hole was gigantic then. you can see how much it shrunk
SG Sam Gambino Member www.samgambino.com Joined: Dec 02, 2003 Posts: 2199	SG Sam Gambino Posted posted on Fri, Aug 13, 2004 8:43 AM Raffertiki and Ben - That is really some great work! Raffertiki, your piece has a "chilling" quality to it, and Ben, that "boneboy" is genuine ugly-cool! That different wood for the bone is an excellent touch. Foamy's piece on the top of the previous page is cool too - It's a Joe Perry (Aerosmith) shrunkenhead! http://www.samgambino.com [ Edited by: Sam Gambino on 2004-08-13 08:45 ]

H haikai Member Regensburg / Bavaria / Germany Joined: Nov 09, 2005 Posts: 233	H haikai Posted posted on Wed, May 3, 2006 8:23 AM aloha! Here are my first shrunken heads, I have carved. The first one has been carved from massive ash wood. He’s being hung up on hair made from coco thread. The wood has not been covered. The size is about 17.71 inch x 6.3 inch. This head has been crafted from balsa wood. The wood has then been variegated and then covered with oak coloured beeswax. The size is about 1.77 inch x 0.79 inch. And the last shrunken head frame I copied for a TC member.
