First Place:
@beardedcrabworkshop's giant t-rex skull
T-Rex build complete! My official entry for June 2018’s Jurassic Park themed @artofgeekchallenge is a 4’ by 3’ fossilized Tyrannosaurus skull. It’s hand carved from 3/4” Birch plywood. The (almost) life sized design was cobbled together from multiple fossil skulls, the JP logo and a liberal dose of my own imagination. Thanks for taking a look, voting starts Sunday July 1st. I’ll post a link in my bio when the contes…

Greedo and Han's blasters frozen in carbonite by @beardedcrabworkshop.

First Place:
Baby Groot carving by @beardedcrabworkshop.
Groot is complete! For my second carving (sculpture?) ever, I think it’s a decent representation of the subject. The last picture shows a side by side of the movie still and what I ended up with. I think I’m taking some time off from the pop art stuff and going back to some practical craft items for a little while, but don’t worry, my brain won’t be satisfied with cutting boards for very long! #wood #woodworking #groot #iamgroot #babygroot #makersgonnamake #makersmovement #maker #geek #geekculture #geekart #sculpture #aogavengers #artofgeekchallenge #marvel #marvelcomics #avengersinfinitywar #avengers #pirateangel A post shared by Greg Reed (@beardedcrabw…
