SeekSurf - He are some more pics for the smorgasbord Benella - I'm glad you are smiling! :D Tama - Yep, almost 40 - Dang-it! Tok Tok - Howdie. Glad you like da feetz; gnarly, huh? Menacingly good aye? Well, I AM a menace. Harro - Go big or go home, right? Benzo - The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by one's success. You tell me? Here are some pics of the surface carving I blocked into his other side. Now I get to go back and clean it all up with my tiny Warrens and start shaping it all up. That should take a day or so...... Thanks for looking, -G |

This was worth the wait, the basket weave is very impressive, the hours you must have spent. The pinky ring marq is a nice souvenir from your buck. In the last picture what's that white thing on the tiki's rear end? :wink: |

Babalu - How you bean? Looks like you guys had a great Chop at your house. I wish I could have been there.... Benz - I'll fix his finger for you later.....the middle one, right? TikiFreak - I think I'll take the chix, thanks. Robin - Yeah, it was my B-day. Thanks for the song, but I'm 38 not 29. Benella - :D JohnnyP Those are....ummmm....well, you know..... it's my Ray Vac in the pool. Kinda looks like tiki butt beads, huh? Here are some pics from today. I started laying out the surface carving for his face. This will all get cut in later. The Paua will get set in as well. -G http://www.oceanandislandarts.blogspot.com/ [ Edited by: GMAN 2007-11-21 13:56 ] |

Hey all. Sorry about the late replies. Tikisgrl - Yeah, I am looking forward to having displayed in the Manroom. He'll like it there. Brad - Yo! Howzitt? Robin - "He is glorious." Thanks. I hope he continues to pay nice and I can keep him moving forward. Hewey - It is nice to be carving again. I've been spending a ton of time in the woods, on the lakes, and on the ocean. I've had some great adventures, but they have taken their toll; I'm beat and run down. Time for some needed R&R with a little carving sprinkled on top. Harro - I'm using some Flexcut V-liners for the Moko. Haikai - I appreciate your comment. Thanks for stopping by. How are you? Benzart - Thanks bud. I've just about got his middle finger all cleaned up for ya. :D T-Bird - We were swordfish fishing. We were fishing off South Florida, in the Atlantic. I didn't take any pics, but we kept one around 6.5 feet. JohnnyP - That cedar is chippy. After that session I came down with PTSD. Yowwie! Alien - Thanks brother! Your guys are stylin' too! I'm loving the Hunter Cannibal. Babalu - No man, YOU RULE! Tok Tok - Thanks for number 2000. That's a lotta replies! How's my boar looking? Updates coming..... -Gman |

The teko is really looking great. I far from using such fine detailing. But I will try one day. The boar is coming on strong. But I donĀ“t know, if I can finish it this year. The wood is just not dry enough. Any hints from your side for me? The wood you use has always dried enough, is that right? |

SneakyT - Thanks for looking. Hopefully I can get some more work done soon. JohnnyP - Looks like a croc-o-tainer? I can't wait to get my dirty paws on it!!!! I'm too freaking excited! Seeksurf - Yep, I know what Johnny has in there! I'll show you when it gets here :D Your "Thin Man" is magnificent, by the way. Tok Tok - My boar carving friend.....Yes, I try to work with fairly dry wood, but I'll chip into just about anything I can get my mitts on; wet wood included. The cedar I've been using for the last few Tekos has seasoned between 2 to 4 years now. Thanks for the nice comment on the Teko. -G$ |
