After a break from woodcarving I'm back and have just finished oiling my latest creation....Frankenstein....what do you think?

Daily Log #2 (no pun intended)

Daily Log #1 A superb example of the shape and consistency I can achieve

Freshly oiled and ready to paint...should I?

I had to show you the refinements I've made with the basswood car ing of a face I'm doing, I'm genuinely happy with it....whats your opinion? Also should I oil or paint or both?

Last photos of the wood carved head work in progress before I finish the ears and paint it... Am very pleased with my progress, and can see my own improvements but curious what u all think? Criticism, or judgements accepted ))

Further progress on the large head I'm carving from basswood, eyebrows added, hair added, some light sanding..

Further progress update on the large basswood carving of a head I'm pursuing.....possibly my most ambitious carving yet....how's it looking so far?

Latest woodcarving is taking shape, carved out of a harder, larger piece of basswood....pleased with the proof of work so far )) what do u think?

A Bitcoin poem: The Ballad of the Invisible Coin In circuits deep, where shadows play, A whisper bloomed one fateful day— A coin not forged by hammer’s might, But born of code in endless night. Satoshi’s breath, a fleeting spark, Lit freedom’s flame against the dark. No vaults of stone, no king’s decree, Can chain its dance, so wild, so free. The blockchain hums, a river’s tune, A ledger carved beneath the moon— Each miner’s whirr, a thread of trust, Weaves gold from air, from dream, from dust. Through wires it leaps, a phantom gleam, A rebel’s hope, a tinker’s dream. No greedy hand can clutch it tight, It slips like stars through grasping night— A penny’s worth, a fortune’s span, It rests in every seeking hand. Yet shadows creep where light does fall, False tongues weave snares to trap us all. But still it shines, unbowed, unbent, A silent vow, a testament— To worlds remade, to chains undone, A coin for all beneath the sun. So sing its tale, both bold and strange, Of wealth that shifts, of tides that change. From Satoshi’s shade, it took its flight, A spark to set the world alight— Bitcoin, the gleam no storm can claim, A riddle wrapped in freedom’s name.

Can anyone with a 3D printer make me a tiny little bitcoin logo stamp? It needs to be about 5mm x 5mm. Or does anyone know where I can purchase one?

Cycloptic bitcoin man is now finished, carved, painted and tickety-boo! Thanks for the love everyone, another little guy joins the horses of carved creatures I've amassed!

I'm stuck knowing what colour to paint the rest of my bitcoiner Cyclops....what colour should I paint the towel, trousers and trainers? He already has the bitcoin orange t shirt ....

A selection of my woodcarvings, from some of my earliest to some of my latest. Proof of work certainly pays dividends as I improve slowly and steadily.
