That IS one happy monkey Tipua! You cant help but smile at that :D (been trying to get hold of you by the way) :wink:

Cheers Robin!

LLT: I shrank down and did another one just for you* - tried to photograph the process but couldnt push the button on my camera, ugh!

PJ: check PM/inbox

Aloha: next week..!




Hey gang - another week spread as thin as ever & never enough time for proper TC browsing, bah! Its the old story of trying to make hay whilst the sun shines etc (quite literally - sewing grass seed before the heavens open again to wash it all away.. although when the sun does come out, so do the sparrows and yellowhammers to eat the seed.. who'd be a farmer eh?)

A few new things to show tho..

Progression of, er 'happy tiki'..





not quite complete

And a few that are finished..
Small

Very small (for Kinny)

Peka-peka (native bat/ double Manaia) - pretty small




Good to see a few new names around recently - welcome new Tcers!

*Off to an exhibition opening tonight featuring the work of new jade carvers; 'the class of 07' from the local jade-skool where Paipo and I met as young Tiki-maker wannabes. Hope to see you there P!

Tama :)
