definitely an Excellent tiki freddi! You gave him a Ton of sweet detail. You can drill holes up from the bottom, insert rebar or steel pipes or bars, and plant him into a cement slab, OR you coulddrill out a couple holes in his back large enough for a couple pieces of angle iron. Stick the angle iron out about 18 inches and stand him on a block against that tree and then drill corresponding holes in the tree. Then back him up to the tree so the angle irons slide into the holes, remove the block and he should be suspended off the ground held up by the tree. Of course you want the holes angled correctly and plumb so that he stands up straight. Also account for glue, cement, spikes, or some other memans to secure the angle irons.
Hope this helps and good luck
Great job.
