Kia ora - Io Orana!

Well, what can I say...? Fan-tab-u-lific-icious-ness! Incredi-tastic! Marvel- er, -ation? You see, there just arent words to desribe this pieces' good-ness... phew
Hang on, Ill try again:

The balance & flow of the entire piece is just Masterful; there are no other words. Everything about this guy is 'hooked up'; the ears, the nose - that cheek muscle just blows my mind! :lol: Its alive, I swear I saw it twitch - and that's on a still photo!! I hope this guy doesnt give me the spooks when we're alone in the house...

I just love how you've placed those knarley fingers with some on top of others and all bunched together; they sit very naturally and are very 'organic' looking. (I have a couple of real-but-cheapo/tourist E.Island figures and the fingers are very straight, carefully placed & symmetrical, and woefully souless. These hands are alive too!
Great colour; straight out of the proverbial melting-pot. A bit Maori, a bit E.Island & a bit Native American in there too I reckon! :wink:
And a face that expresses it all; proud, strong, with perhaps a touch of sadness. A poignant pose that speaks for all native cultures in this fast-paced world.

Rest assured this will be much admired & highly cherished and Im sure I will proudly tell the tale of his making/maker for many years to come. A legend is born...

-Now strike me off that list & get on with the next one would ya! Ive monopolised the Benz-love long enough! :lol:

THANK YOU BIG BENz!!

Tama :)
