Chris Bonobo is a fantastic french carver/painter... He makes tiki since a long time (I think i got one of his small pole 10 years ago or so), and he found a way to make really big but light tiki poles out of polystyrene.

I commissioned him for a marquesan style one for my tiki room. It's amazing how it looks real. I love it.

Have a look at his art and more polystyrene painted tikis on his myspace pictures : http://www.myspace.com/chrisbonobo

Here it is on his garden, and in my room :
