Ben..,. thanks. This has been a challenge. Once again, the arms are my nemesis. Also, the wood in the middle is a bit mushy, which will make the headress tough. JohnnyP.. thanks! I'm liking the mouth, too. G.. you bet! more pics soon. tikisobayli... I use a chainsaw to cut out the main shape, although I cut it too deep.. next time i'll cut less. Then I used a reciprocating saw with some drilled holes as a start point.. nexttime, I'll cut a lot less out andgo from there. Conga.. thanks! you've been busy too!
