Absolute Genius, Kirbs!
An small illustrated storybook to go along with this piece would be a wonderful paring!
That break you took really recharged the creative electrons... this piece is over the top cool!

Nice headdress on that guy, and I am digging his bamboo necklace too. I never thought I'd see a poser tiki.
