Moondog, your pieces are starting to look much better,,, that's what happens when you practice so much. Every one you do is practice for the next one. Have you not figured out how to create your own thread yet: It's really easy..
T-Gap, Missed you at Hukilau.

Paipo, Tamapouitini, 4WD, Wplugger, Billy the Crud, Tkimecula, French carvers, German carvers, Australians, Kiwis, Irish carvers. Where are you guys? Keigs, Bosko, Tiki Diablo, Aloha Station,Basement Kahuna,Gman, Surfingtiki, etc.
We need some nice inspirational carvings to get 2011 started off nice. Just because nation is in a recession, doesn't mean we need a recession of tiki carvings. Bust out them chisels you bastards! Let's see some chips flying. Hell, even KIRBY has carved a tiki recently, and he's got his hands full chasing around an unruly 1 year old.

GROG! I'm 6 months late seeing your post, and I can only speak for myself, but I've been carving all year, and posting what I carve, in...get this... MY thread!
Take a look there!
As an incentive, here's my most recent. It's non-tiki, but very in tune with this year's Oasis theme:
