Ivy @ The Liki Tiki Lounge

Here she is Folks. My little Hired Killer, who nearly killed me inking this piece.

Seriously though, anyone on my friends list on Facebook would have seen my W.I.P.'s folder there, where I was constantly taking pics of this thing with my cellphone, and uploading as I went along page by page, section by section of my process inking this puppy. what originally took 2 weeks to pencil, took nearly that much to ink.

So happy to have it one finally. I've sat on it for the last 3 years, always wanting to work on it when I had some spare time, and always finding an excuse not to. But, no excuses this time. I wanted it done, and God Damn it, I was gonna get it done. I've been fortunate enough to have some of the Biggest names in "Low Brow" and "Tiki" art comment and gasp about this on Facebook, especially since many of them have been given Props on this piece....mostly as Names on the Liquor bottles behind the bar.

hopefully one of these years, not in the too distant future, I can get it colored. Fingers crossed, as well as toes, tongue, arms, feet, legs (without crushing my nuts), and whatever else I can come up with.
