Hey Benzo

I have been thinking about it since I posted here last. I have been thinking that I would like to be put on the list. I think that it would be one of the most expensive tiki purchases and rewarding too.
I like the Moai's that you do, the best. It would have to be a darker wood with some grain still showing. And the little arch in the neck. Although the tattoo face craving are very well done and probably harder to do, they remind me of a certain childhood figure that is very scary.
My favorite of all the 55+ is the one that you did for Gecko. It makes for a sweet necklace charm. The weight is at the bottom. I usually don't like that figure cause it would make a bad mug cause of the little bodies they usually have. Could you added me to your list but maybe email me the price for a moai or (maybe a Gecko type)? I was thinking that if it was a bigger piece I would like it around a dark kukui nut lei but then probably wouldn't get to wear it as much, so maybe that is a later project. I would like to have something more personal and at the same time would like you to have artist freedom and your interesting sight. What if it was a moai that had my features (long nose dark eyebrows) . Now that I think about it I guest I look like one. I could send a bunch of pics and give you a challange.
I spent one night and looked over all your stuff. :)
