Thanks all for the kind words!
Sorry it has taken me a while to get back to this, I posted and took off.
I HAD to go to Utah for a week of fishing. Honest, it needed to be done.
The therapy was actually working through a loss. I didn't actually mean to do the whole body, it just kind of happened.
Whether wrong or right, this was what I came up with for the scales.
I used a gouge and created the shape, and then cleaned it up with the hook knife.
Sorry about the quality of these shots, my camera was in the shop, but the camera phone is better than nothing.
The back.
The hip, do tiki's have hips?
Okay, the leg.
All those scales and I only broke one hook blade. Those things FLY when they snap!
I was finally able to get some pictures of the carving I did to pay for a previous trip.
I really like the weathering that's happened to it.
Thanks for stopping by, and remember to tip your bartender, especially if he catches you behind the bar. Are you paying attention Matt?
Great,great work!I love this last one very nice!Aloha!
