Somewhere between 250 and 300 so far, Doug. I've lost count.

 

I worked on the other side today - for a change.

 

One from each side tonight.

 

God, this is taking ages.

 

Brilliant.

 

You know, i kept seeing this 'big chunk of oak, what shall i carve out of it?' thread and always suspected it'd be another one of these threads that are filled with general back and fourth rubbish chit chat. To my suprise, when i finally clicked the link, i see this master piece.

Bravo!

Now if a piece of glue with a minor resemblance to Homer Simpson can fetch £150k+ on Ebay, just imagine what this bad boy can bag you!

 

Would the National History museum be interested in something like that? They may have the budge to compensate you for your time.

 

LOL, is that true about the Homer thing? I couldn't put a value on it, I'm too close to it. Thanks for the praise!

Luminous, I'll probably ***** lots of emails all over the place when it's finished - you never know.

 

I remember seeing it at 151k. I've also had the pleasure (or misfortune as the money aspect made me sick) to have a tour around a very, very well off couples' house. It was full of pieces of so called 'art' ranging from blobs on a canvas in which they paid a few thousand for, to a load of bleach bottles filled with different coloured lights which they paid hundreds of thousands for according to them! All i'm saying, if you rack up enough interest in this magnificently crafted spectacle, from the right people, you could find yourself cashing a very healthy cheque.

Judging by the skill and talent, you'd very much deserve it too

 

 

Seeing that gave me a thought....how long before you do the body too Bubba ;-)


Its a cracking it of work and I hope you get rewarded for undertaking it

 

Hell, it looks.... 'real'!!!

 

Aye, it's not looking bad, is it?

 

Pardon the vernacular but that looks 'sick'

 

Lol - I've been "remixed" by one of my loony mates.

Unreal Bubba,that well and truly is a work of art and my hat comes off to you sir

 

Is your 'carving shop' the equivalent of a "downtrodden husband's shed refuge at the bottom of the garden"?

 

F*ck me. That really is an outstanding piece of work!

 

Amazing buba po that is one awesome piece of work. Wish I could do stuff like that I'm very jealous of your talent

 

How much do you know?

 

It's de rigueur.

 

PMSL Thats really funny :loll:


So are you a bit disappointed its turned out nowt like an egg ?

 

That had me in stiches, putting in an egg box and trying to scramble it!

 

I thought they'd now decided T-rex had feathers, not scales...

Forget it! I'm not sticking feathers all over the barstard at this stage!

 

Yeah, it'd've been cool to watch our lass trying to crack it and scramble it.

"Look more like an egg, y'bastad!! Look more like an egg!!".

 

Lol Sorry Bob, couldn't resist. It's a fantastic piece, I'm really impressed.

 

No offence taken, and thanks.

 

'As small as an egg'.........


Shame it's still out of sync, though.

 

First time I have looked at this thread in a very long time and all I can say is wow, what a fantastic piece of work.
