ALOHA TIKI TRIBE!
little lost tiki - Dude! Monster Scenes from Aurora - "Rated X for Excitement!" Oh yeah baby!! I had the "Pain Parlor" and the "Gruesome Goodies" and "Frankenstein" and "Dr. Deadly" and "The Victim" and "Vamperella" ... torture devices and helpless or evil scantly clad women... wow, was there ever any less politically correct models for kids? I remember my mother threw them all out! Ee-gads! Now I'm slowly buying them again on e-bay at truly torturous prices! AND.."Snap-together" (!?!?) so you don't have any glue to huff! PAH-LEEZE! How evil! What was a childhood with out that delightful glue buzz while putting together monster models?
Of course now that I'm making art for a living, who has time to paint monster models any more? I have them so I can look at the beautiful George Bama cover art. Great Stuff! Inspirational!
Now my paintings are my monster models. Each one is a box cover for an Aurora "Tiki" model that was made in an alternate Universe.

Here's the "Tiki" model box art so far...

Here's a closer look see at this 3-D aloha shirt... (getting a fun Ruzic feel I think to it?)
More laters!
