First off I would like to thank Palama Tiki, Gman, Benzart, Aaron's Akua & Manokoa for all of your support, guidance and inspiration. Also all of the other tremendous artist here on TC.
Here are some photos of my first five attempts of Tiki Carving:
#1 Moai

#2 Tiki Jim inspired "Tiki Moon"

#3 Moai "Necklace"

Here is my second Moai carving, looks strangely like the first even though I didn't use the first as a reference.

#4 Tiki 3.5" tall

He has a George Thoragood mouthful of teeth!

Halfway done I realized "No Split" in his front 2 teeth.

#5 Tiki 5" tall

Here is a photo of #1 to #4

Thank you again from all who have inspired and helped me. I welcome any and all suggestions or criticism!

I'M HOOKED!
