me at work on 2 new tikis

Aloha,

This is me killin my back. These will be on ebay sometime shortly. The guy on the right of me is a tiki mug shrine. Put your favorite mug in the slot over his head. He's almost done. The guy on the left, is my interpretation of a Marquesan tiki which is also carved in Tahiti. Actually Tahiti carves several south sea island tikis such as the Philippines.

ran out of dam gel!

does anyone on TC own this tiki or know the guy that has it? I carved it at "House of Tiki" for Wes. I wanted to see if the guy that owns it could send me a few pics of how he has it displayed.

Aloha to you all!
