I found this weird guy in a thrift store yesterday. It appears to be made of a sintered ceramic material and has a sandy feel to it. about 4 inches tall. Is it a tiki frog, frog tiki, or something else? Anybody recognize it? Mahalo.


would make a nice mug if someone were to duplicate the sculpt up to mug size...... "son of suffering bastard".

After looking at the sculpt closely, you can see that strange wood-grain like texture on it. It's a dead give away. It was created using a 3-dimensional printer, aka you design it on a computer in some sort of 3d digital design program, upload it to the printer software and the printer will actually print/sculpt that design in various materials.
