Well can we call this Tangoroa . Its made out of sabal palm and i brushed it with a gloss polyurathane spar Thanks for looking

As always, really nice work...

What do you use to put the divots in the coral?

Keep up the good work...

Thanks Brother I use sabur tooth bits, Here is the latest carvings, I am entering a hispanic Art show and came up with this carving, It was inspired by my father who was on a cuban boat and seen a USA boat and jumped in the water and swam to the USA boat. I have names it " Cuban Refugee in Shark infested turbulent waters risking life for freedom

Sunday evening Carve.

Hello TC

I am finally getting around to finish this carve I did a few months ago, still need to paint some palm tree on the eyes

I seen this guy coat the tops of his tikis with tar, so i decicided to coat a intire tiki with tar and call it a VOLCANO TIKI hoping that is will look like cooled lava, this carving was a small 14 inch I did several months back just hanging out, so I used it as a sample. I like the idea !

I already have a custumer from this design did nt even have a chance to stain and coat, Thank you TC for showing me the way

Practice make progress have a nice day
