aloha...this is my 1000th post and as cliche as it might be, I would realy like to thank every body here on Tiki Central who have encouraged me over the years and those kirby fans out there who have actually givin up there hard earned money for one of my art pieces, also to all you great artist over here in creating tiki that I look up to for guidance and inspiration...you rock... Contest .. the first person to answer this question will recieve acustom painted tiki kanoo pendant, and a coconut monkey lucky penny bank free,and I will even pay the shipping...question in my Tiki Adventure (which now longer exists on my website)what was the prize for pleasing the tiki gods and jumping into the great volcano?
good luck!!
And a post would not be complete without sum pics.. so here are a few new pendants and a 6ish footer i just finished..

Kirby, you've got a very nice collection of pendants going... love the 3-D on the Tang with the rope around his arms!
Great colors going on too!
Impressive 6 footer also... well thought out and some clever design elements going on with the skull eyes!
Back in the saddle again, and killing it bruddah!

the answer is "a custom painted tiki kanoo pendant, and a coconut monkey lucky penny bank". what could be greater? great work there kirby. love the skull wearing tiki. really dig the varied use of skulls in your work.

Perhaps the answer is: an island (Tahiti)... Tiki jumped into the great volcano of thanking the gods for having given the land to its people ...

Dammit Kate! I knew I should have checked TC this morning before work...I love that paper pendant I got from you Kirbs for completing the web game (I got it from you at the 2nd lucky tiki art show!)
Kirb - your designs are one-of-a-kind. Very impressive styling, vision and execution. That large tiki is AWESOME - I love all the detail on him, it all just fits together perfectly. I'm with lake on that tang pendant too, very cool dimensions. you are THE man!!!!
