"Tiki"?

Bill Vollbrecht has made a neat Tiki Bar scene.

Check out the wood type thing around the bottom of the walls. Jeez, I am about to start college with a major in architecture and I don't even know what that part of a wall is called...

Anyway, it lights up too! And the tiki statue is cool, looks a lot like a little Tiki guy I got in Disneyworld a long time ago. Is Tiki a culture or a religion or what?

It would be amazing if the tiki eyes had lights too.

Hey! Thanks for the comments! Yes the eyes of the Tiki God do light up as well. I recently made a larger diorama of this for a client in Northern California that turned out pretty cool

P.S. The term you seek is Wainscotting. I was trying to make it look as if were made from bamboo
