Okay, no offense to anyone... Every time I see this design I am reminded of this:
Louis Gossett, Jr. in "Enemy Mine"
Anyone else see a resemblance?

now you're cooking Tiki Lee's....it is a good thing you tossed your original in the fire
and got a fresh start....I was telling you all along it was "just the wood." Great effort.

It looks nice and aged like its a hundred years old. Nice job. All the sweat shows in the great detail you put into it.

Hard to believe it's your first finished piece - not only is the detail great, but it's got a really ancient look.
