Are you bored enough to watch me carve a Sea Horse from a railway sleeper?

Brilliant, nearly there. Particularly enjoyed speedy-cam and “deep relief”.

Everyone’s a critic, but are you going to do anything more with the nose?

I wasn’t but now you have mentioned it I might. Off to google what a sea horse actually looks like. Everything so far has been from memory rather than actually looking at a picture. That might have been a good idea nearer the beginning of this process.

EDIT
I have looked and most pictures are side profile. This one isn’t but he is not exactly happy looking : https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-portrait-of-a-maned-seahorse-or-long-snouted-seahorse-hippocampus-113822270.html

Surprisingly hard to find a front-on photo of a seahorse! (And yes, I am that bored 🙂 )

Here’s a couple:

And here is how I chose to interpret that

I may engrave deeper tomorrow, I want to see if I like it first

A disappointing 44 views may mean “Part 4 – Watching Paint Dry” never happens. It will have to wait until the wood stain is delivered regardless..

Thanks to my 44 har core fans who endured the 3 so far

Enjoyed 👍

Bring it on!

Ive started now so I’ll have to see it to the end. Actually enjoying it. It’s looking good.

Is it just me that cringes seeing flip flops when using power tools?

you’ve not been to India then? safely flip flops are all the rage there

It appears I _am_ bored enough. Fair play for doing this, I think it’s great. Please make #4…… Or are you going to make it like Binky and we have to wait another 6 weeks?

I started filming part 4 and discovered a distinct lack of wood paint/stain. The filming will continue when the new stuff arrives.

I can give a sneak reveal of the working title : Carving a Sea Horse – Part 4 Watching Paint Dry

DO you think that summons the right level of expected excitement?

Sounds spot on! I’m still watching…

Sneak snapshot from the fourth and final part of How to Carve a Sea Horse

Expect the full video to be released around lunchtime tomorrow – this might just break the internet.
