Here we go
Cook-Islands mask from Coon-Tiki was completed several weeks ago.
Here are the last few in-progress and completed shots:
A couple of shots of the 'nostril' pattern, beveled in
Finished pics:
The chin pattern. The wood did not like my original pattern (see above). I like this just as well, I think it evokes a skull.
Forehead design
Sides details
I love the finish and sheen that the tung oil gave the mask! The red details are simple acrylic, which I oiled over for protection
A Kapu Kahik original! I polyeurethaned the tops and back
Check out the hooks. They are actually picture-hanging hooks, which I flipped over to pound into the back of the mask for hanging on my gate.
