Thanks for the comps. This guy is not for sale. I'm still trying to keep this a hobby, at least for little while - the day job is way to comfortable.

Here's the Skull Tiki - #6
I'm not happy with the way the skull came out so I have to sand and refinish that. The rest of the tiki came out right on. This was my first experiment wth several color stains - I like it!! First I used the torch then hit it with the stain and poly. The issue with the head being too heavy for the "neck" hopefully will work out. I hollowed the head the best I could with the chainsaw and chisels. Now I have to cross my fingers and sacrafice some virgins to keep the smile on his face. More to come...
