I am back in Minnesota, which was not my plan, but it's warm enough now that I can spen my nights in the garage making wooden thingys.
I have recently become obsessed with the Vinča culture of the ancient Balkans. That will probably be a post unto itself, but many of the statues that have been found from that culture look like aliens. They are super cool, and after seeing them I wanted to make a Vinča-like thingy out of Buckthorn.
It doesn't look very Vinča-like, but it's name is Vinča.
I'm just experimenting with the colors, but I think red and black are probably going to stay.
Vinča looks like an owlish bird, but it's also a club. Buckthorn is dense and heavy, and I could certainly smash things with it.
Vinča is fun to play with, and since life in the suburbs is pretty isolating, I will have plenty of time.
