Hey Tama, I was also a bit worried when you stated your plan to carve into that Hei-tiki again. I'm glad the operation was a success and that the ancients helped out a little to. Things in the right places make all the difference.

It's nice to see the Bullet tiki back on the table and so close to being finished. I think you are being very smart to add the stitching holes to the back. I just don't trust glues enough. He looks great. I like that you left the flat sides on him and slightly rounded them off. I like that look alot.....It just feels "substantial"

Now the three hei-tiki faces is a new twist. Have you done these before? Please post updates when you can. Very nice! Sizes?
