Now that he's seen his statue he is inclined to agree and he said he is truly honored. It's been a lot of fun. It took an hour to do the shrunken head side and four months to do his face right. I love reading the posts that you have all sent, thank you very much. I almost did the reverse side of Gecko with his tongue out in a Maori grimace but it was faster to make him a shrunken head. Now making one that's electric and has tongue motion is an interesting idea, like a Hallmark ornament. If you would like to see other tiki projects that I've made for Dan they are on http://www.claytikis.com it was a surprise gift from my nephew so it's not really a business web page, it's just for fun right now. Keep having fun and love those tikis, Wendy
