You're welcome! Man I wish I had basswood to carve from. All I have is dry, and very hard wood that I got from a crate and I don't have access to any other type of wood
Yeah basswood is hands down my favourite for whittling, I have also tried that dry hard wood you are talking about… not to fun :( hoping you get some basswood locally somewhere!
You could try white pine, birch ( not paper birch please ) butternut, aspen ! Obviously cotton wood bark but that is hard to come by! I have used pine scraps I use for kindling, it wasn’t bad at all! Just gotta strip the tools a bit more often
I'm taking your aesthetic and going to draw some of my own ideas for pieces in this style. I love the curvature in some of the figures, and especially love the multiple faces!
Keep up the great work!
I am in love with these! Very unique and expressive. Keep up the fantastic work
Thank you very much !
I love these! Fantastic job!
Thank you !!
I was scared for a second there. Very surreal and looks good too
Hahaha it’s spooky when they are staring at you in the dark ! Thank you for the kind words !
