This is another of the Massive "Lavisse" black velvets from the Kahiki TikiSkip had. OakTiki gave it to me and the Lounge of the Seven Pleasures as a Birthday present several years ago. Between my memories of the Kahiki and my more recent memories of all the Ohio Ohana, it makes me smile every time I see it.

(Compare it to 1961surf's Leeteg Tahitian Chief back on page 3 earlier in the thread.)

The small white-ish line to the left of his head is a slight tear in the fabric. The frame also has some slight damage down in the lower right hand corner tucked behind Polypop's carving.

Eventually he'll be carefully repaired and hung properly on the main wall in the Kapu Gardens portion of the Lounge, but for the moment, he's resting safe and sound along the Lounge wall greeting all who enter.
