Nice slit drum. Heck looked good too with just the face. Minimal. I believe the PNG's would burn out the centers. Not sure how they did it though.

MadDogMike posted on 12/05/2016

Very clean! You could probably drill it out from underneath then put a wood plug in the bottom?

Dang, Jon, just got caught up- dig that Kapu carve- very fluid from bottom- and impressive letter carving.

As you know, I'm not a huge fan of Disney stuff (might say some of their stuff is "kapu," but your carve is epic. Great job!

Good Job Man

You may wanna consider taking a wire brush and lightly scrub the entire thing down. Then a very thin, light coat of dark brown over it to get into the areas the brush removed. Will give it an older weathered look and not so new and fresh...

Just a thought.

Erich

WOW WOW WOW, how funny to read this today. Dan just said he wanted to put our tacky tourist tikis outside to age them and I said let's spray paint time and wire brush them.

This tiki is so wonderful. I have 3 black velvets to do based on these tikis for the Wish List. Now we all want your tiki too!

Good job. I love it. Wendy

H
hang10tiki posted on 01/14/2017

Thanks CY

Hi Wendy
That's funny
I know you like coincidences
:)

Did you work on aging yours yet?

Done with the back paint
Next is the "aging" process

Cheers

D
danlovestikis posted on 01/29/2017

So many projects so little time. I told Dan he gets to age them. I'll let you know if he ever does it.

I'm ready to see how yours turns out. I know so little time!!!

You know what, a few years in the heat and rain and it will look like the Disney tikis. You did a wonderful job of carving and painting.
Your yard is wonderful. Someday we will come again and visit you and Janelle and we'll tour your tiki spaces again. Wendy
