Plus the Tiki market here is quite saturated, so its tough to compete. You need not only talent, but experience and an understanding of the art form that will help you to come up with something unique. Also, the economy here is in the dumps, and people here are rather selling than buying. The problem in Europe is that Tiki is very much an insider, hipster or Rockabilly/Hot Rod thing. That might be your chance in Northern Europe/Scandinavia: Vintage car events and websites. Have you tried http://www.tikieurope.com/ ?
