Hot damn tamale! That's scary as hell but excellent work... looks like a genuine artifake! Keep up the good work.

I have to say I was really worried about the hair, but you really pulled it off well. The whole piece is pretty scary looking. No weird voodoo is gonna get past that guy for sure.

He looks wikkid Craig! Three or four coats should do it. Let'em dry real well though. I love this piece! The hair put him over the top.

Now thats spooky! This piece looks like it should be sitting behind glass in a Museum in Honalulu.. 
And youve only made a couple of carvings before?? Wow! If you aim to make each better than the last (which should be every carvers motto), then you are going to quickly become known as a 'must have' carver..
Top chop!

Thanks again everybody! Seeks I think I might go the PNG route but I might stop off somewhere else first!?!? Not sure yet, still going through pics! For some reason I'm on a kick of putting on extra stuff on my carving, so if I do do a PNG piece expect tome freaky bird feathers and more shells!!!

Great work! that is a top notch carving-I really like the hair. that sets it apart and makes it seem real old school.
I bet a PNG by you would be insane! you and congatiki can share trade secrets!
