Chainsaw Carving (Critical)

Let's Carve a Small Stump Bear!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idxypPJsWlU



In this YouTube video I watched about carving a small stump bear, Chris (the artist) takes me (the viewer through the steps of carving a small bear out of a small tree stump. Some of the things I really liked about this video are the imagination Chris has when carving this stump; if I were doing this I would really have a hard time imagining a small wooden bear inside of that stump. I also like the look of the bear; he looks pretty cool and has a rustic look to him. On the other hand, here are a couple of things that I do not like about this bear. First, can't the guy spend more than 30 sec sanding the bear if this guy wants to sell these things he dose not want his customers getting splinters. Second, for the painting of the bear you don't want to use spray paint that looks just trashy and cheap, if this guy wants to make his art look better "than the average bear"(LOL) then he needs to use some sort of stain. Once the stain has dried he really needs to put a glossy finish on it. Lastly I think anyone who watches this video will agree this guy could pay just a little more attention to detail. The overall composition of the video seemed pretty professional, but if this guy were going to remake this video I would suggest he adjust the camera to another angle so we see less of his rear-end. Chainsaw carving originated In 1952 when Ray Murphy used his father’s chainsaw to carve his name into a piece of wood in Hancock, Maine.
