Regan, GROG, Kinny, Robert & Amy - thanks for your kind comments on Bob Kong. I ended up selling him on eBay for far more than I expected :D
I have revisited 2 recurrent themes for me: Baining and matching shirts & mugs.
Someone had posted a shirt a while back that reminded me of the Baining patterns. I tried making a Baining shirt with red and black Sharpies but it bled too much. So I created a set of Baining Fire Dance mask graphics and had them printed by Spoonflower. (thank you Dawn) Then I appliquéd some flames and the masks to a black shirt. If you are going to Mojave Oasis and we have not met, I'll be the one wearing this shirt Friday night :D

Then in an unsuccessful attempt to out-Tiki Guy Buzzy, I needed to make a mug to match the shirt. I had previously made a Baining Mug I and a Baining Mug II, this one is a little more simple than the last two 'cuz it was a quickie that I had to get done by this weekend :)
