LLT little lost tiki Tiki Socialite Orange,CA-right near the Circle! Joined: Jun 12, 2006 Posts: 7763	LLT little lost tiki Posted posted on Sat, Nov 18, 2006 9:02 PM Aloha Fair Ohana! Mahalos for all the friendly words and excitement! The more I go to events and meet you Mug folks,the more I am convinced that you will ALL want to have these 3 little babies in your home and/or bar. Holden says that these are some of the most intensely attention-to-detail never-a-dull-moment mugs ever to hit the world! Or something like that! Well, we've been getting some glaze samples in, but I don't wanna show ya til we get the PERFECT ones. These are very detailed designs, so the glaze will be important in order to properly "read/see" the design! Will post those as we approve 'em! In the meantime, i will show you the "medallion" decal art for each. Here's the decals-simple calm and friendly little Tropical scenes-a day and a night vista for to contemplate whilst enjoying your spirited beverage. Note that as you look at these,that the decal colors will be tonal to the mug glaze colors (whatever they end up to be).I'm gonna try a color wash over one of the oval medallions,but I think, with the intensity of the front tikis, that tonal might help the mug achieve a nice balanced look(instead of the front and back competing for your eyeballs) BlahBlahBlah! Heeeeeeere they are! First, we have "OLI-OLI"-the"much happiness" one! and here's the mug art (in a limey-green color) to kinda show you how it will look! Now here's "KAKAKA"-the long-breathed god of Moikeha! Anyone got anymore info on this guy,I'd love to hear from ya! Like I explained a while back,this is the middle guy-neither overtly stoked or macho energy aggro overload. In-between/contemplative/creative....this is that pause before an idea or an inspirational "blink". All you creative types know what I'm talking about, that neutral place between the void where we get our ideas! Well, I pictured that as either a volcano or a waterfall......And here they are, ladies and gents! and here's kinda how it would look on the mug! Joy! And last,but by far not the least of them, "PU PULE" which means "crazy,reckless,wild" kind of AGGRO. We've all seen people like this....well, they need a mug too! For this one I have chosen huts- night and day huts.....cannibal huts.....to offset the day and night of the OLI-OLI mugs! See if you can find the subtle skulls amidst a seemingly calm village scene.... and here's how it will look on the mug... Well that's it for now-gotta get back to my huge 4x4 footer "Pompele" Here's the thread for that if you wanna take a peek! http://www.tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic=19904&forum=18&start=210 Thanks for visiting and I hope this gets y'all as excited as I am! Now G'wan! Git!
