Was up till 2am Friday night working on the franken-tiki. The candy green paint didn't work, so I had to make a last minute run to the hardware store to buy some custom mix "bright f**ing green". It's too cold at night down here so I painted it in the bathroom with the heat lamps on :lol: Anyway I donated him for auction, he got $100 for the Sydney Children's Hospital. I sold the pirate tiki to the editor of Aussie mag Cruzin, and have a few guys interested in other tiki stuff too. I'll post pics when I can :D Oh yeh, I also got some cool tiki/pinstriped art :D :D There is "good" bad taste, and there is "bad" bad taste, and the difference of the two is in the eye of the beholder - Sven Kirsten* [ Edited by: hewey 2007-07-01 04:07 ]
