Nice start on your tiki - can't wait to see it done. Look at that view you have! WOW.

B

it is the french alpes near mont blanc.

it s late but you can see le mont charvin

B

Impressionnant ! Better than my first tikis.

Benjamin.

Nice chops and a beautiful view!

You've got some confident deep cuts going there and crisp lines.

Ash is a challenging wood, but it looks like you are handling it well.

Its great to see all the different places that Polynesian Pop Culture has spread to!
Keep up the good work!

WoW ! Sweetness this guy is very cool. NICE WORK!

Whats the story on the red guy?

B

in the beginning i am ispired by an celtic sculpture.
it is an very old monsters and legend from the celtic france (gaule)
but i like to mixed with other styles cultures (polynesian,and amerindian)
it is the vouivre or tarasque

B

this one in stone is the real one found in a very old celtic sanctuary of south of france.

You need to host a chop at your place. I'll bring rum cake!!

Excellent head. The large tiki is very unique - i love it. Are you going to carve a body?

you do some mighty fine work bagauda. great detail in the faces. and so small as well. with that much detail i thought the pieces were much larger.

bd

bagauda, Just had to say that the expressions on your little tiki's are just amazing! The detail, crisp lines and perfect protrayal of physiognomy features makes one to think that they are almost real........ or to put it another way - sweeeeet!
