Hi Tiki Central! Here another summer update from France:
Thank you for kind word Christophe, U'u warclub is made from a large méranti plank.
Also thank you Amate, Jeff, ForTheLoveOfTiki, Rioturban, Watango, Hiltiki & Grog! Thank's guy's!...
Hey Sensei Carver! Glad you like. This Marq mask is inspired from a painting seen on the net. He will soon decorate the studio of my fav tattoo artist!
Glad you're back T-mec! Thank's for reposting the Marq'club and thank's for your comment! Much appreciated from you. An U'u club carved by you will be awesome for sure, and in a piece of black walnut! Wow! You must find that! Can't wait to see your new works...
Some news from the workshop:
One classic tiki made from pine:
Another, larger in spalted beech:
Some Witco style carving:
Witkodama. Three mask look like tree spirit in Miyazaki's movie "Princess Mononoké"
A pair of Squared Moai
A trad design inspired by a Kanaki door frame:
carved from walnut
And my last linoprint:
made especially for the next Tiki Tribe exhibition next weekend:
Shifter knob made from beech for the buns, pine for the meat, plexiglass cheese, real gear and Corian wings.
More info on this car show here: http://www.crybaby2013.com/
for this occasion I will install an A-frame above our tiki bar on the meeting site.
The work in progress:
First cut...
Carving...
To be continued..
Have a nice day!
Jérôme.

Good to see your thread updated. I find it uncanny how we both like the same kind of things. I started a "Cubist Moai" several months ago but got side tracked. Not sure if I stole the idea or not. I just pulled it out to look at two days ago so I guess I'll go ahead and finish it up. I also have several photos in my morgue file in the style of that Kanaki door frame. Great stuff so keep at it!

Hello fellows Tiki carver!
Hey Amate! Great minds always meet ... It seems that also we tiki carvers! Can't wait to see a squared or cubist Moai by you. And the kanaki art was awesome and too disregarded by the tikiphiles
( From the book "Vision d'Océanie" by Vincent Bounoure)
Thank you John Creative Chimp! Here quick news for the beams on the post above:
The tiki bar that I've built for the gormandizers car show!
I've add some stuff:
More under the marquee on left...
And the party in full swing!
For this occasion we have edited a new issue of Hey Tiki!
And some button badges
It was a weekend of pure madness. Nice cars, nice guys, good friends, some rum...
And now back to the workshop, a small Ku knife work:
Thank's for looking!
Have a nice day!
J.

Just need taking time to post on TC...
-Feed back:
Laojia like when GROG like.
Thank you Atomic Mess!
Also Thank you Hale Tiki. This A-frame will be revisited and improved for the next event.
Dank u Karloz!!!
Thank's Tucson Tiki! Hot rod culture it's a part of Tiki culture and mainly a period overlap ...
-Workshop update:
First, a classic Tiki carved from willow:
The can to pringles inside is a sounding speakers for iphone... Commissionned work.
Then, two Pa Kahawai pendants, inspired from maori trolling lure:
Made from matai, paua and bone. Avalaible today on my Etsy shop
A Tiki Bob:
It's a classy cool carving... But I think it's better with Ta Moko:
Also Willow and ebony for the eyes.
And finally, some fun with schrunken Head carved from birch
Rough carving...
With sewing and hair...
As are natural hair,I've had to teach them a hairstyle:
First trying... Nope...
Other solution... Blah...
Finally, natural hairstyle it's should be fine:
Under glass bell, basis made from beech
In the light of the day
(difficult to take decent pictures with the glass bell...)
That's all folks!
Thank's for looking!
Have a nice day!
Jérôme.
