Shawn, my suggestion is to join the Vertical Artisans online training courses. It is pricey, but what is an education worth? I did it many years ago when it first came online and it established some real good fundamentals. As you move through the training you will learn more advances techniques. That's the best advice I can offer.<br />

<p>Here are the results of my 3rd bag of mix. It is getting better and I keep learning more every time. I already can't wait until tomorrow to try different things. I am going to lay and carve some stairs here too. I have also been playing around with colors but have not satisfied with the results so far. I will post some shots soon.…</p>

<p>Thanks Nathan but I was cringing to post those but I figured it would be fun to look back later down the road and have a good laugh. I still look at pictures of my first couple of tiki's that I carved, I must of been drunk or had my eyes closed.</p>
<p>Here are some pictures of day two of practice. I still didn't get the look I am after but I learned even more this time around and can't wait until tomorrow when I mix another bag. Hopefully I post something worthy tomorrow. …</p>
