A slimmer figure isn’t the only thing carpenter Sticks, aka Mark Croker, has gained since filming of The Block wrapped.
Taking to Instagram, the 31-year-old from the South Coast of NSW, recently showed off his new set of pearly whites.
“I’m not 1 to post selfies. But you might notice I’m a little excited about my new set of chompers,” Sticks captioned a snap of his sparkly smile.
“Stoked,” he added.
And as it turns out, Stick’s isn’t the only one impressed with his new look. His fellow blockheads are, too.
“Yerrr boi! Looking the goodz,” model Elyse, 24, commented.
It’s not unusual for The Block contestants to leave the competition looking completely different after shedding a few kilos throughout the series.
Afterall, plumber Jason, 46, has already admitted to dropping 14kgs thanks to the renovating show.
Chatting about his time on the show, Wombat admits he and Sticks are still coming to terms with their sudden fame.
“Our hometown is pretty laid back and everyone already knows us there, but when we step out it’s different,” the 38-year-old salesman reveals.
“One time Sticks and I were down doing some food shopping and people came up to him and asked him about the show. Then I came around the corner and they were like ‘You’re the other guy!’ and I just laughed.”
Of what it would mean to win The Block, Wombat says the money would put an even bigger smile on Sticks’s face.
“I know it would really help Sticks out dollar-wise because he does have a massive mortgage. But for me it’s an opportunity to do more of the stuff I’m passionate about like travelling and experiencing more of what life has to offer,” Wombat says.
