I wanted to share the tikis I've done so far, both in Polynesiac's class in San Pedro, and at the Left Coast Oki Oki over the weekend. None of them are "done" yet, but they've all got some progress. I can't draw, so I really wasn't sure how I'd do at carving, but I think I'm addicted. :)

My first Tiki from Polynesiac's class, I'm leaning toward burning it and seeing what happens:

My second Tiki from the Left Coast 'Oki 'Oki, Bosko designed a simple tiki for us to do. I had to keep going deeper, but I think I finally got it deep enough. I'm undecided about the forehead and chin.

My third tiki is from Benzart's lesson, he carved one half and I did the other. I'm sanding it now and trying to decide on stain.

Any feedback is appreciated!
