Bear fighting Eagle for Fish

[Haplo]

Seen this the other day. Will try to get a few more pictures of it later

I’d wager the bear gets a nibble and the eagle gets a meal.

Skilled work for sure.
Can anyone tell if it’s all chainsaw work, or if if the artist also used chisel and discs or whatever finer tools might be used?

This plate was on it which led me to his website. Very skilled

I believe it's all chainsaw, but they use a special bar with a very pointy tip for the fine detail

Here's more of Paul's work, the largest carved bear on the east coast

I recommended Paul to a client that wanted a white Oak stump carved. He was booked out a year, so his son in law and apprentice showed up, before we even had all the brush cleared out. Here's the turtle he did. I went back today to photo the completed work. He said he's been carving for a year

Here's his website https://www.halpinchainsawcarvings.com

He uses other tools. I have seen him using a corded disc grinder with a sanding wheel, a similar grinder as a bar tip accessory, Hammer, Chisel, Punch. Most of the work is chainsaw and that is true for a lot of what you might consider to be details.

I wanna see a "bear fights fly fisherman for trout" with the fisherman landing a big punch on the bear's snout.
