I have a question and would also like the opinion, of anyone out there, especially those that collect Tiki mugs. I recently started making my own tiki mugs and i'm undecided as to what colour/s to do the final version. I'm just wondering, do people prefer mugs in bright colours or do they prefer them in more natural tones? Or does that also depend on the actual design of the mug?

I personally like bright colours myself, but also understand and accept that doing a Moai style mug in grey or black makes it look more realistic and would most likely appeal to the majority of people. The same as a Ku, Lono or Marquesan style mug being finished in browns to make it look more like an actual carving. Or does that not matter at all, provided you like the design itself you don't care what colour the mug is?

Although i'll most likely end up choosing what I like, any feedback would be much appreciated and certainly taken into consideration.

Cheers
