Here is my latest creation, the Tiki Bar!

It started out as a vignette, but it quickly grew out of hand! I was going to post this to vignette, as well, but didn’t want to get anybody mad...

Excellent MOC! Xposted to .vignette.

This is Polynesian Pop at it’s best... and so much detail. Are the walls Medium blue or Maersk blue?

The Tiki is excellent, and very reminiscent of Ku (Yes, I’m Hawaiian). Where DID you get those curved arm/leg pieces in Brown?? My only criticism is his big round belly.

Your link didn’t work for me, but when I browsed your BS gallery, I saw that you also had this Tiki:

Again, excellent work. Mahalo for posting!
