Game of Thrones fans know no bounds. From a 3D-printed life-sized model of Tyrion Lannister to the castles of Westeros recreated in intricate detail in Minecraft, they’re always finding new ways to express themselves. Take Chris, who has a YouTube channel dedicated to his love of woodcrafting. Among Chris’ many creations are a trio of Game of Thrones-themed carvings that are, in a word, awesome. Check out the video of Chris carving the Stark direwolf sigil into a tree trunk below:
"[NO SPOILERS] HOUSE STARK in walnut (with no ugly colored epoxy) from gameofthrones"
To get the time lapse effect, Chris stops to take a picture after every inch or so of work. All in all, he estimates that he took around 3,000 photos for the Stark carving.
But there’s more than one Great House in Westeros, and more than one block of wood in the forest:
"[NO SPOILERS]. Well dang! Based on the cover for Fire & Blood it looks like I need to do a new carving!! from gameofthrones"
We’re not sure what’s more mesmerizing: the process of creating this Targaryen sigil or the final product. We do know we wouldn’t want to be Chris’ video editor.
Naturally, Chris ends his carve-a-thon with the Lannister lion:
"[NO SPOILERS] And for my final carving: LANNISTER in spalted maple with pastel powders and lacquer. from gameofthrones"
This might be my favorite, Seven forgive me.
