I carved the iconic Maximus helmet from Gladiator out of a solid block of walnut. Gladiator is one of my all-time favorite movies, and it was finally time to tackle this legendary piece. Because of the insane amount of intricate detail, this was easily one of my most challenging woodcarvings yet. #gladiator #carving #woodcarving This Helmet has been SOLD!!!
