Kooche, you will have yours before your show.
Some of these went to JungleTrader. He ordered several back in the beginning and will have some available on his website I believe. I'm working on individual orders now and you will see more posted Shortly.
However, Numbers 3
And number 5
Are still available. They are not the best of what I've done but make me an offer.
#3 has darkened quite a bit as Cocobolo does. I'll get a newer pic.

I like #5. He looks a little like a tattooed Dennis Hopper.

YEs he does kind of look loke D Hopper, but with his chin missing. If he had a chin he'd be good.
Here are the latest 2 and Polynesiac is next so will get first choice. I think CultJam is next then SamG. Gecko is getting a Big maori which is 3/4 done.

DUDE...these are awesome...every one of them is awesome!
i am a big fan of the pieces that are LESS human and more abstract...those that are posted above the Haletiki warrior are SO SO SO tight...
let me know if i need to stay in a holding pattern until my number is up...these are SUPER!
thanks again!
