It's supposed to be the easiest wood to carve for beginners, and it does carve quite nicely if you get the right variety. I bought some poor quality basswood off a no-name Amazon brand and it was quite tough.

Basswood. Got it off a guy on eBay.

I think it will more convincingly look like Tux once he's painted. (Hopefully)

Just the one knife - a flexcut roughing knife (KN14). I followed dywoodcarving on YouTube for the chick, and made the Tux by myself.

It's actually supposed to be Tux, but I'll take that :)

My wife loved it, thanks

Anything is sex with the right mindset.

Thanks! First time painting something in my adult life :)

Smells like a mix of KY and fries.

I long ago moved to a pair of 4TB hdds and recently upgraded to a pair of 16TBs

Disk... drive?

There's these large bodies of water called oceans. I believe it goes there (what with always going downhill and stuff).

More and more rain water runs off into streams, rivers and eventually the ocean because there isn't enough foliage to slow the water till it is absorbed by the soil. The foliage is typically replaced by concrete and asphalt (urban) or fields (rural).

Also the increased average temperature of the planet is causing changes in weather patterns and reducing rainfall (in many areas) and increasing the variance of rainfall causing cycles of drought and flood.

Hang on to your hats folks, it's gonna get worse before it gets better (if it will get better at all).
