Like I said, looks like a real carving. What stain did you use?

Awesome computer art. I took me a little while to make sure that pic was your digified tiki, not someone elses carving pic you got your inspiration from.

Thanks. Just to make things more confusing, there is a real tiki I used as inspiration in the Tiki Art Now book. The "real" tiki is by Ken Pleasant (keigs20)

Thanks, *FC*. I'm just getting back to using my Wacom a bit more than in the past. My 2D skills have deteriorated so badly that I have to fall back on 3D all the time, which is a lot more time consuming. I'm so envious of the skilled 2D artists here and elsewhere, especially the ones with their own distinctive retro or cartoon styles. I could never do stuff like that. But if you need a spaceship modeled....

That's so funny...I'm just the opposite...while I love drawing, and have paraphernalia (of the artistic kind!) laying everywhere...lol...my house has become my studio...I see what's done in GC and I'm in absolute awe....I just ordered the Wacom...I got the Intuos3 6x8...I've heard it's something you'll never regret....but 300 bucks for an experiment is SCARY!
anyway, I may just have to talk to you about that spaceship sometime! How cool would that be!?!?
now you've got me thinking...lol...I love this board! 
and by the way, as far as I'm concerned this is amazing art! (not just computer stuff...) Don't think any less!

Nice job man!
There's some true artistry behind taking something from basic forms & knowing how they will look when you Sub-d 'em!
Very very nice......

that is very cool. the fake looks pretty darn real to me. It would probably have fooled me if you tried to slide it by. again good job.
