My Akami Waha™ Redesign [2022] © 2016 Eric Olenslager - ARR #AkamiWaha#tiki#tikis#tikimask#tikicharacter#mask#golem#creature#monster#superhero#myoc#oc#originalcharacter#character#characterdesign#conceptart#characterdesign#tikipop#tikistyle#tikiart#tikitiki#drawing#digitalart
![My initial idea for Akami Waha's design dates way back to primary school, based off of a papier-mâché mask that I made back then [and that I still have].
Akami Waha's design influences are tikis, totem poles, the comedy mask / the tragedy mask, golems, Pinocchio, and the Tasmanian Devil.
This is my 2022 iPad Pro Procreate / MicroSoft Paint drawing attempt at a redesign of my previously posted 2016 Akami Waha concept sketch.
Akami Waha is imbued with a supernatural volcanic power of pyrokinesis that he creates/shoots through his hands.
Akami Waha also wields and sometimes surfs upon his leiomano [a Koa wood-carved, shark-tooth-stringed, and rooster-feathered weapon]. His leiomano is enlarged to surfboard size via magic.
Akami Waha was created by a sorcerer who carved him and then used magic to bring him to life.

My final Akami Waha design concept sketch was influenced by tikis, totem poles, the comedy mask / the tragedy mask, golems, Pinocchio, and the Tasmanian Devil.
This final Akami Waha concept sketch is my blue ballpoint ink-pen doodle that I scanned in and then roughly edited/coloured in MicroSoft Paint.

Here is two Tiki Ornaments I sculpted. The Moia looking one is sculpted after a Tiki Ihave that use to be a prop on The TV shoe The Monkees. I will be selling the Tiki Ornaments on my shop that I am putting together. #Tiki#tikiart#tikicarving#art#artwork#sculpture#sculptwork#Ornaments
My Tiki Shot Glass Set that I sculpted that stacks up like a totem, made a mold of them and cast them in a food safe resin. I am in the midst of putting together a online shop and will have them up on it. #Tiki#tikiart#art#artist#artwork#tikishotglass#sculpture#sculptwork
Here is a Tiki Flask that I sculpted, I made a mold and cast them in a food safe resin with a metal flask in the center. I will be putting a few up for sale soon. #Tiki#tikiflask#tikisculpt#flask#tikiart#tikisculpture#resinart#sculpture
Here is some of the projects I am working on now. Tiki Mug is Nintendo controller themed. Stackable Shot glasses are characters from Premium Edition Games. Oswald will also have a shadow box, with a painted cell background. #oswaldtheluckyrabbit#tikimug#tikiart#sculptwork#sculptures#nintendo
