I love this Tiki. I can't help thinking there is another hiding behind the bark, waiting to be exposed.

Great stuff

Laojia: Thanks dude, always there when one needs you.

Seek: Thanks my friends, in fact this piece (I think it is poplar wood) was kind of soft to carve because this log was chopped only a few days before the tatto show.

Yubaba: thanks dude, I've been in Orval, Belgium where I met my friend Laojia a few weeks ago ! Anything new from you ? Hope the kids are alright.

Alien: Thanks, in fact this piece had to be finished in 2 days... but now it's Virani's so everything can happen under the bark !

Mahalos,

Thanks Benz, I visited Virani who is the owner and I can tell how many good times this tiki is having there !

Hey John Thanks ! Laojia wrote faster than me ! In fact there are a lot of beers in the blue box behind the tikis... hmm there was because now there could be one and I'm not sure :wink:
I'm very close to the Eiffel tower (approx. 10 min. with a car) but the building in front of my window hide it :( If I have the time, i'll take a pix of him nearer.

Laojia thanks dude ! Hope to see you soon to drink a beer or 5 with you !

droool. I want that beer. How come I never have tasted that beer when I see you 2 ?

Now, back to tikis ! I love that last marquesan a lot. Go to work and do more tikis Ben !

B

Hey Virani, I'll keep one bottle for you :wink: Thanks for the marquesan dude but the carver is Creative Chimps who carved it (like a master carver I agree) from Red heart wood for a swap we made. The piece he'll receive from me is in production :)

Mahalos.
