If you use source material, credit it - putting a lei on a Pisco moai decanter, a fez on an OMC moai or chopping the topknot off a Maori Head candle doesn't make it an "original sculpt". If it's a repro, sell it as such. It's Cool, If you look real close my sculpt lines are different,The eyes, Nose, Mouth, Hair Line, ect. I realy did this from a picture! Still not going to sell it, Too close to your candle art, No Big deal, on to the next project! Thanks for letting me know! Mahalo! Gogo My Hair line, Nose, Eyes, and Mouth are different, I think, What you all think? A copy? [ Edited by: GO TIKI 2008-07-24 19:06 ] The face and the unique base of the candle/mug look pretty identical to me. Good mold and glaze job though.
