I wanted to create a whale tail, and something along the theme of Surf City. I think I have managed to bring the scale of my pendants down a shade. I think I'll leave the monster pendants to others for now. I like the big pieces, but I think smaller is better. My whale tail, a bit different that the rest, and maybe not looking like a tail any longer. I had a few comments at Hukilau that all my stuff was very masculine, so this is my attempt at something girlie. I call this one the Surfer's Lava Cross. The black area is suppose to look like lava, and is stained in permanent and waterproof India ink. Pupule Tiki! [ Edited by: TikiMango 2009-06-18 09:45 ]
