Sincere thanks for the encouragement.
Here's an incomplete medium mod tangaroa I'm keeping on the back burner. This was a sinewy log I got from some tree trimmers last summer.
Still lots to do: Abalone offering dish, pedistal storyboard, limpit shell accents and a sparred base remain.

PakoloLolita dusted off my very first Mod Tangaroa for a recent visit to Benihana Village at the Las Vegas Hilton.
Koa w/hemp armbands, offering shell and hematite "black pearl". (optional Hawaiian-grown hemp tapa loincloth not shown. It's Vegas, baby!)

hodadhank, Very cool store front. And I don't exactly know why but it must be your brown hoodie (matching shoes) but you have a tiki monk look going on. And the flow of your jaw line into your Goat tee has the look of Little Lost Tikis warrior drawings which is cool too

Hmmmm... I see what you mean teaKEY.
I'm not suprised when my likeness appears in Kinny's work as he's always thought of me as the abusive step-father he always wanted, and so long as he continues tossing loose change out the window as his limo glides by the shop, I won't lawyer up.

Still in progress. I messed up a spar coat and need to sand AGAIN. Ey carumba.

Pretty cool! That is definitely a unique style, and it works. And you NEED a unique style for where you live!

Thanks for the feedback Harro, Surfintiki and Seeksurf. Eric The Red poured some resin into the empty abalone cavity in a very successful attempt to stablize the pulpy wood behind the shell itself.
Not forgettin'you Conga! Have you gotten any pictures of Mindi in college surrounded by a sea of empty beer cans ,pizza boxes and
unfinished term papers? LOL!

Dig this! My friend Rob Tobin took a picture of Freaky Boutiki's Grateful Gargantua in case he bumped into Billy Kreutzman,
Hawaiian resident and drummer for The Grateful Dead since 1965. Billy loved our tiki, and tikis in general.

Great looking tiki Mr. Hodad. I've popped back to look at it a few times
and it makes me feel good. It just has a really cool vibe going on, or are
you responsible for the vibe?
