Doug got right on it and this was produced . Now that Tiki Caliente II is on Rory asked me to reproduce Doug's art in a Koa wood pendant . Its hard enough carving Doug's art into a full size tiki like I did for TC 1 recreating the poster tiki for the show. But now I had to reduce his masterpiece for a necklace. Its 4 1/2" tall and I even sliced my index finger trying to put all Doug's details in such a small carving . I hope I did you justice Doug .
