Byoootiful one! Love the time lapse, too: The birth of a "Tiki" I am almost afraid to suggest a thing layer of aging for the piece, cuz I don't wanna risk it getting messed up. :) |

Great video and a beautiful Abelam. From the photos you can't tell that it's 7 FEET TALL!!! With the time lapse, your chain saw looks like a light sabre :lol: |

Its good to see you here. The video is excellent! I also agree with BigBro adding some aging/petina will really make it POP. [ Edited by: AlohaStation 2012-02-08 06:32 ] |
