The irony is it I put bugger all effort into it, and it came out pretty cool! I will be experimenting further with spraypaint effects on more tikis for sure. Surf’n’turf – This was the first time I’ve ever gone for the chiselled look. It was too plain with the straight edges, and my girlfriend suggested I round off the corners as the sharp corners didn’t look any good. The chiselled off corners addressed the issue and gave it a nice traditional flavour. Flynny – Nice ride. Here’s my soon to be sold daily driver: On the weekend I will be checking out a reuse organisation. They have a warehouse where they sell all kinds of interesting industry offcuts for bugger all, and they also have an art gallery that only features works made from reused items. The exhibition they have at the moment is a tiki theme! Hopefully they will let me get some pics! :D
