Flaming Limes are cool. Just remember not to melt the straw.

Where did you find such skillful actors for your video?

Can't wait to own one,

They're coming to get you Barbara! Can that be right? No one has said 'Dead Cool' yet? What in tarnation is going here? We had every faith in you Tiki Racer but you really nailed this one in the head! This ZOMBIE mug is going to be on everyone's wants list I'm sure. Another fine example of BRITIKI in action...When there's no room left in HELL the BRITS will walk the Earth!!!! Send more Paramedics...Send more MAI-TAIs!!! Sorry if I miss-quoted anything there, but the MAI-TAIs are starting to kick in. And, for all you 'anorak wearing horror fans' who are about to post....Chill out and have a ZOMBIE dudes!
Seriously...Great job done by an up and coming Tiki artist who, I'm sure, will become more widely known with each creation he presents. Keep up the good work TIKI RACER...we know you can deliver!!!
Sorry to end on a low note, but who are those losers in the News Report? Surely you could have done better than these 'low lifes' and 'hangers on'? Ditch 'em before they bring you down ol' boy!!!! Mark my words...They will!!!
All the Best from Tiki Towers - Trader Jim & Sian The Beachcomber xx
(Make mine a limited edition ZOMBIE!)

REALLLY GREAT! Great Mug, and a commercial too! Well done Tiki Racer! I think I dig the monotoned version though... brings out the detail. Beautiful work!

Thanks for the great feedback, I put some more sales details on my marketplace thread but here's just the pics again.
The set includes handpainted mug and numbered by the artist [me!]. The mug is packaged in a body bag, sealed with a hazard sticker to ensure fresh delivery of your undead drinkware.
A limited edition giclee art print [A5 image on an A4 sheet] of my original mug design, signed and numbered [numbers match the mug] by me.
There is also included a [death] certificate [again signed by the artist] to prove that's authentic and cause of dead.
This is limited to only 50 sets.

giclee art print

... The dead drink again

Did you shoot that in a morgue? If you did that was a great idea. If not tell people you did, 'cause it's a great idea.
