The perception of color is such a miracle and your sky proves it. Hey, the new huge carving...is it a bear trying to split the log in half to escape?

H
hang10tiki posted on 12/17/2023

Hi W

Colors were amazing

Good guess, close, it’s a small but heavy stump, I am attempting to make human hands trying to get out of the log

Fingers crossed, I may have put them to close, we will see

In the meantime:

That's a really cool rack for your chisels. Fun tiki you are carving. You are officially now a machine with all you create.

Will carve posted on 12/23/2023

The extra credit you could rack up from this carve is mounting.

How much can you make ?

How much can you stand ?

How much can we take ?

Those are a couple of tuff looking characters.

You should send them to collect any money owed to you.

Such a perfect comment there's nothing left for me to say. Right on!

Did you paint the tiki steel blue or is that the lighting? Well done no matter what.

Those flags are really super special.

Happy 2024.

Ok

I saw an awesome chainsaw carver (Michael Jones) make something kool.

So I decided to try to make one for my next-door neighbor who has to put up with all the noise I make carving. 😆

Hope it works

Let’s try

That was a fun run of photos. Dust is our enemy but it sure is fun to write in. You sure have some great ends for your carving tools. The fox is going to be really cute. Happy New Year.

I have the genes that make me hate bitter. I've only had one cup of coffee in my life. I only drank it because I was freezing being a saloon girl at a charity event. I ran the Roulet table outside and it was so cold.
