Waitaminit...how come YOU asked the question -and then you supply all the answers? :) I mean >how much closer do you wanna get than that guy, and those carvings you posted...?

LOL! I'm just lonely and like to talk to myself. Person I got it from made the possable Cook Islands link. Again I also read "Something" (memory is foggy) about tattoo Warrior carvings in Marquesas &/or Tahiti on some website. But there were no photos of examples, and I have found nothing that close. My worst case scenario was that he was done in some place like the philippines by someone working off a drawing. But I think he's too sexy for that. Especially with that original rope necklace and detail on the spear. Thank for finding that photo!
