Easy enough to do with all the good stuff popping up lately. I love the Marquesan/Rarotongan mashup of techniques you've used on him and I have previously noted my preference for these guys to be well equipped - they seem kind of sad in the no package post-missionary style, seeing they're all about abundance and fertility. Definitely one of my favourite wood carvings this year! The new guy also rocks - sweet lines and a traditional vibe.
