McTiki, I've always dug your work. Nice to see all of your recent stuff here together in one spot! Maybe you'll inspire others to get on the ball and start carving again?? New Year's resolutions right around the corner... :wink:

Really nice work, McTiki.
May I know how much time did you spend on the Tiki "Vert"?

Thank you Wendy & Dan! You are too kind.

Polly, Vert was around 6 hrs total from skinning to finishing.

Thanks again for looking

Nice work McTiki! How do you add the cool details like the designs in Bone Tiki 2s eyes?

Do you sand them and then shallac them? I still have my one and only palm tiki to finish this summer. I'm a fan, Wendy

Update time!

thank you for the compliments! Yes Wendy, as you know by now.....lots of sanding, and yes, they all get sealed with either a Matte, semi gloss, or gloss Spar varathane coat or two, sometimes four.... lightly sanding or wooling between coats.

Some Plaques

Some Newbs!

Thank you for browsing!

Love your travelers and the inlay is cool. Nice work as always Andy!!!

I've been wondering where you have been and now I know. You've been off creating more wonderful tikis. I love the small ankles. Wendy

Hi McTiki, these B n W photos look like vintage 1950's postcards. You could start a new business. Beautiful work, Wendy
