GROG now have pictures of the polished FRANKENMOAI that John Keith and I did for Tikis and Terrors show. We'll have it in the Spooky Luau show this Saturday as well, so if you missed seeing it then, and all the other artist's super-talented stuff, drop by on Saturday if you're not in Florida.

Thanks to Mary Measures of Mayzure Photography for the nice pictures of the FRANKENMOAI.

Designed by Ernie Keen and skilfully machined by John Keith.
Polished Billet Aluminum, 8 inches tall, plus a one inch plastic base (also made by my buddy John Keith) 6 pounds without the base.

Polished and unpolished.

Profile.

This is still an unfinished piece. It's got one more pass through the CNC machine to add the hair on the back of the head. There are a total of three pieces made. The first two are prototype/artist proofs for John and I and the third one
will be for sale. John is going to sandblast his, this polished one is mine, and final one still needs to be polished once it's hair has been machined on the backside of it's head. John and GROG hope you enjoy our handiwork.
