Thanks Ben and laojia!
I finished this pair over the past weekend, a commission for Clysdalle.
Larger versions of a previous tiki.

WOW Bill!!
Those would be excellent anywhere, but what came to my mind right away was an entrance with a carved door between them...Killer stuff as always...

On this one no, but on others, yes. It sort of seals the wood surface (in addition to soaking in) and that affects the stain. Stain needs to penetrate some.

I imagine it would. I've only painted over it. Perhaps if you only applied it to the back, leaving the top surface uncoated, then you could still apply stain in the normal way.

Thanks guys!
Paul, they were designed to fit in a specific space. They have two tall and narrow wall sections where the tikis will be hung. Hopefully, they will post a photo when that happens!
Big T, yeah, I did just that, really soaked it in on the backside, and less on the front, where it got a black stain, so it wasn't really noticable at all.

Nice nice Tikis sir! I'm loving these finishes you are putting out! They look so primitive and old, yet, pristine.
Well done.
