Here is the first eye poppin' full on view of the official Tiki Caliente 5 Tiki mug sculpt!!
Doug Horne design.
John Mulder sculpt.
I wanted to mix the modern with the primitive aka Rat Pack Headhunter.
The 5 Tiki heads at the top of the mask represent the 5 years of the event.
It stands a whopping 11" tall and will have actual rope with beads going through the holes in the mask.
John has done an amazing job bringing this to life and I'm excited to see the finished mug.
I hope you guys like it.
The sculpt.
More to come...

Wow has it been 5 years already! Rory was just a little baby cannibal 5 years ago. Now he's a full on head shrinking professional. 
I'm really looking forward to Tiki Caliente 5! If you haven't been it's a blast!
Below is a sneak peek at one of two 8X10 prints that I'm working on. They will be available exclusively at the event in May.
This is a detail shot of the full image.
