K keigs20 Tiki Socialite WA Joined: Jun 02, 2002 Posts: 549	K keigs20 Posted posted on Mon, Jun 13, 2011 11:03 PM Yay!!!!! its been a while but here is the second Munktiki/Ken Pleasant tiki mug this has been in the works since 2010 and will be available soon. With the permission!!! of William Westenhaver my grandfather in law this is my take on a Witco God of fortune tiki, there were many different styles of the fortune god and this is a collaboration of them all. I carved a god of fortune sent it to Miles at Munktiki and he did an amazing job of sculpting and creating the new mug he is a true artist. I am proud to be carrying on carving the tradition and hope to have many more mugs and carving's in the future.

T tok-tok Member North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany Joined: Oct 17, 2007 Posts: 148	T tok-tok Posted posted on Thu, Jul 7, 2011 6:52 AM Do you know,how much it will cost? Will it be affordable for the mere mortals? I would love to have something in "Witco"-Style some day. It is nearly impossible to find here in Germany. No, it is totally impossible. "Witco" was an american phenomenon which did not swash across the big pond. So it is always a great pleasure for me to see stuff from you. As Tipsy McStagger said: make some new recession tikis.
