Rodeo,
That looks sharp! I cant wait to see how the torch and the stain come together on the finish. I was waiting to see pics of that one. I'm liking it a lot. You need to do the line down the center of the board like Marcus did.....

Rodeo-
I freakin love this guy!!! I love that you mixed surf with tiki!!! Are you going to give this guy the classic Rodeo Tiki stain?? BTW can or have you made a thread on how you burn/stain your tiki's?? Some of us Sperm Whales would love a step by step of this process!!! Thanks for posting pic's!!!
Later,
Spermy

He's looking even better than when I last saw him!
And I didn't think that was possible!
Can't wait to see him all varnished up in those different colours, sweeeet!!
He's got all sorts of attitude, love it!

I'm liking that design and the 2-tone, rodeo. These are just improving it seems.... Keep up the very fine work!

In a dream last night surf tiki came to me and he was very pissed. It turns out he had no knees and no toes , therefore no toes on the nose.
So with some spare time I re-worked his legs and added some space between them and the board. Toes are slowly coming and more detail to his hands.
Thanks again.
I dont post my carving pictures to say " hey look at me"
I post because i am inspired by the amazing artist here and want to share what you guys inspire me to do.
Mahalo.

Rodeo,
Everyone knows you need to have toes to hang 'em off the nose! Glad to see your surfing tiki has a full set and can hang however many he wants. Good stuff. We know you don't want us to look at you, but we wanna see what you're doing with the tikis up there!!! Please continue to keep us up to date.

I'm glad you are posting progress shots. I like to see them. I enjoy seeing how different people approach releasing the tiki from within the log. I've spent many hours pouring over the amazing photos on this site and it gets me charged up to grab a log and try something different or attempt a different approach that somebody else took.
Thank you
JP
PS Besides its great to see somebody carve where it actually snows.
