Thanks, Jeff! I try to increase the difficulty with every tiki!
Appreciate it, Congatiki! I'm gearing up to tackle a lono shortly .... one like your latest!
Thanks, Hang10 ... no fez, but at least his eyes aren't crooked! 
Much appreciated McTiki! I know seeing all the progress shots from other TC carvers and the pics help me tremendously!
Thanks, Cy! This palm is giving me some fits, though! It's quite dry so the fibers tend to crumble when trying to get into too much detail ... slow and steady!
Thanks, Will! I'm trying! Getting behind the headdress to work the back is a challenge ....
Appreciate it, Tom! .... I can't wait to get the white paint on those teeth! ... (I'm Kidding!)
I worked on the headdress today and the hands. Also cleaned up the eyes and did the teeth ... just a few more days and he'll be ready for sanding ...
Thanks for stopping and Have a Great Day!

Damn!!! This Tiki carving crap is taking over! Fishin' Friday used to be an escape from the carving, sanding and staining! ..... Now look what has happened! I've been bamboozled by the tiki influences into taking logs and chisels to the lake! ....
.... I did catch a fish, so Fishin' Friday was a great success!

the noise of chiseling didn't scare the fish then?
Nice work on the Ku.

Thanks guys ... that is a catch and release lake so nothing bothers those fish! They know they will be back swimming in no time!
Posting the pics of the finished Ku ....
Trying something "whimsical" next ... well, in addition to the log I'll be taking to the lake tomorrow!
Thanks for stopping and Have a Great Day!
