Hey RenTiki! I will most definitely look into Terragen; I love realistic terrain renders. A lot of pro 3D people diss Bryce, but I dunno; I like making pretty peictures, and I don't like to take days to do it. Those hieroglypics are rongorongo from Rapa Nui (Easter Island). They are as yet untranslated, and are found carved into wooden boards, all of which are probably in museums. The image is not embedded in my signature, but referenced from a web page. Got it by reading the HTML doing a "View > source" in Explorer. So go check out http://www.rapanui.cl/eng/index.html (it's the official Chilean Easter Island site) and you'll find it and other graphics. There are also two rongorongo fonts I know of. Unfortunately, not freeware. They are at http://www.deniart.com/rongo.shtml and http://www.islandheritage.org/dingbatfont.html . aloha, |

Ems, Octane; You are very helpful! Thanks for the links. Ems, that one Artist; CRISTIAN AREVALOS PAKARATI is very good! His style reminds me alot of Escher and Giger combined. Really interesting. |

Umm, here is another palm frond I painted. I know it dosn't resemble any kind of Polynesian or Hawaiian artwork but I love colors and it's like therapy for me! [ Edited by: Skreemn Mimi on 2003-07-22 22:30 ] |

Here's a link to a thread I posted a while back with my first two art pieces. There are so many new members, I just had to throw my hat into this thread. I haven't completed anything new lately because I've been working on my jewelery (people are buying it now!) My pool also looks more inviting in this heat so I don't think I'll be working on anything until after summer. https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=3169&forum=1 Since that thread I also got my "tiki holy grail" so the fire piece is still in the living room. I looks pretty cool over the fireplace so it may stay there a while. You can see witco piece in my orange room here (for the newbies) |

Stellar job on the Wahine Vay, I still would love to get a copy of the Stingray you posted earlier. Any chance of this happening? If you dont have access to copies do you mind if I cleep it off the web and print it out? -- I believe that our Heavenly Father invented the monkey because he was disappointed in man."

Vai, Can you make that green fabric a little more transparent? She is in the right position but we are missing the intended view. My bad, I'm sorry I can't behave myself all the time. Great painting! Monkeyman |

Here is one I just finished. This is for my Mom, who just retired to Florida, so it is not exactly my style, but I did manage to sneak a Moai into her design. Keep posting everyone, this is a great thread, nice to see everyones work on here. |

Rentiki, Nice paintin' How big is that. I dig all the detail. Nice bowl of skulls by the tiki dog No bar should be without either. I do have one suggestion. The tiki who is playin cards with the visible pupil. Try making his eyes like the other tikis, dark sockets. Just my opinion but that tikis eye is almost smack dab in the middle of the canvas. and you cant help but to zero in on that white spot.

Here is a photoshopped sketch I have been goofin on. Nothing spectacular but I l was kinda diggin' it. My new thing is trying to make stuff not look too photoshopped. It is tough tryin' to not click on those effect filters. Chongolio -- I believe that our Heavenly Father invented the monkey because he was disappointed in man."

Wow you all do great stuff! Who would have known of all the Tiki Talent out there. I love Mimi's Palm art, I got to try that some time. Vay, I have some similar art that I did for T-shirts for the Pacific Whale Foundation. Your's are more Tatoo like.
Keep up the good work! |

RenTiki, Thanks for the compliment. Don't get me started I could post designs all day. I was waiting to show these to TC once I had my website a little more fine tuned. Right now there is just an order form. These next 3 designs I sell as vinyl stickers, in white or black. If anyone is interested I could post a photo of my truck so you can get a feel for how great they really look. They (and a bunch more) are available at stores in Hawaii and at http://www.stuckonmaui.com for $4 ($16 for the Flame Design). these two are about 7 inches tall and the flame design is 36 inches wide (great for windshields or back windows of pickups) Thanks to RAIN for his inspiration on the drummer Tiki. Yeah, where is Rain? he is missing from this thread, his stuff is real art. |

Hey Ren, thanks for the comments about my art. I was a fine arts major before switching to graphic design. It's has kind of been ingrained in me to critique art. I am probally the harshest on my own stuff. Keep up the painting and dont take mine or other folks critiques to seriously. You know what they say about opinions and arse holes... Everybody has one. Definately not as detailed as your stuff, I tend to keep my decal design really simple because I am the one that has to pick out all the little pieces.

Chongo, been meaning to mention to you. Back in June, the Father's Day card I got from my wife had one of your stickers inside as a bonus. She bought it from you off eBay! When I saw it I said "hey, my friend from TC makes these. He was the one that made the OC Tiki Crawl III Shirts." She bought the exact same sticker you gave me at the crawl! **Poly-Pop *** [ Edited by: PolynesianPop on 2003-08-01 10:41 ] |

P-pop good have you back! That's cool your wife found them on ebay. I have been pretty inconsistent with getting them up on ebay. Let me know you ever need more. I am always willing to style and dial anybody in the T.C. Ohana. Come to think of it, I still owe the good Doctor Z a couple of them for hooking me up with a few of his plaster tiki heads. -- I believe that our Heavenly Father invented the monkey because he was disappointed in man."

Chongo, I love your stickers! I used to weed them all myself, but I switched to a company in Texas, but the quality was poor, so now I have them done on Oahu. I still package them for retail sale in bags with a hang tag. So what would you charge me to do the work? I'm currently selling around 2,000 a month. Mostly turtles, the tiki stuff doesn't sell. How has your stuff done on e-bay? I'm thinking of giving it a try. RenTiki, You can see all my stickers at http://www.stuckonmaui.com Thanks for all your positive feedback! |

Alright Vanui, Glad to hear you got styled on the stickers. Any chance some of the TC ohana can score some from you? I would be interested in picking up a couple. Tikiktony, thanks for the sticker guy link. Definately some of the best prices I have seen for screen printed stickers. I will definately be using him for my sticker needs ( if the shipping isn't to outrageous) |
