It is so cool to see the different styles people use when they carve. I think the texture of your tikis looks awesome, not to mention the carving too. Is there a special technique to get that look?

I love the vintage touch you gave to your latest creations. But also the older tikis.
Cool play of colors.
Love this one, even if I have to crick my neck to look at it.

I really like your carving style and finishing technique. Very vintage/classic looking but you definitely make it your own. Keep posting the tikis!!!! They're awesome!!!
