Aloha Tiki Tribe!

I'm working on a new painting named "The Red Tiki Lounge". An important part is "the Red Tiki" which sits outside the lounge... I figured before I went any further, I better get the design of the Red Tiki down - get it just right in my head. Sometimes this is the hardest part of a Tiki-Art painting. I'm kinda picky about how they (the Tikis) look - gotta have that "tiki" feel, that Hawaiiana - "Waikiki-hot-spot" Tiki-feel. Still respectfully done, but cool, not really historic. This can be tricky. This ones coming out pretty good - actually better than I thought, and I think I'm gonna ink it and put it up for sale, as it might look really swank in someones home tiki bar. Anyone like? Personal message me.. or watch as It gets inked... but there is only one, so first come first serve.
Big Aloha!
