Thanks Will, congratulations on being "cool and current."

Experimenting here with the coloring and finish of this figure, it's
starting to look like something that was beaten up and re-finished many times
over the years. This guy is the result so far of three splashes in an oak stain,
a crazy blue stain that came in a tube, that's a story in itself. Limed oak stain,
and finally a little more of the darker oak, sanded quite a bit in between all
of it.
Pretty boring...

Feels like outdoor carving is wrapped up for several months,
getting pretty cold up here. Lots of time to keep messing
with the "Blue Tiki"

Edited because I couldn't get the pictures right.
