First off I am a new member, and Hello to everyone. I Love Tiki's and Tiki Central, but I have tried my share of tiki carving and enjoy but enjoy airbrushing more. Thru the years I have seen some cool stuff here, but have seen alot of airbrushed tiki art on the forum also. Unfortunately it's not all in one place. So lets see some Airbrush work, Post your airbrushed tiki art here. I'll start!!!
This is a 10" dia piece of pvc 4' tall!

Welcome to TC Nick. Nice airbrushed tiki, very detailed.
One of my favorite tiki airbrush artists is Dennis Mathewson (cosmictiki) He doesn't post very often so I'll put one of his works here. I believe this one is on brushed aluminum.

I am not sure if I have any pics of in process I'll look.
Yeah Dennis Mathewson is awesome, I think that's where I got my ideas and really wanting and getting into tiki art. I was fortunate enough to check out his work in Waikiki, at the Thor Studio. Pictures online don't do justice for his artwork in person. You have to see em in tru life. Those aluminum ones he does has so much depth and glow that you can look at em for hours and just get mesmerized by it!

Post, Post, it doesnt have to be a tiki, ANY airbrushed tiki, shrunken head, hawaiian, or other similar airbrushed work will work, just keep it in the style of TC. ----Tiki's Rule Though----

That's beautiful Nick. Great stuff and good post. I tried airbrushing a loooong time ago, however it's not my forte.
Is that your work Hewey? If it is, if I ever get a car worth doing that to, I know who i'm going to come see.
