In the future i would like to make one representing Tane, my namesake, How would i make it... um... unique? so that it clearly represented tane?...

And are there any customs i should know about before carving pounamu...

Any answers would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tane

Sorry about the slow reply, have been kept busy!! :D

Hi Tane - Just a quicky (we're all kept too busy eh?
*In order to make your Tane Mahuta representation unique requires only one thing: YOU have to make it. Simple as that. My personal advise/opinion is to tackle it as you see fit: make him as you know him; the God of the Forest; a tree Man; big Man; the Giant of the Waipoua Kauris.. Do him proud!

Tama :)
