Post Re: The "What you just got in the Mail" Thread
I was quite certain it would illicit some comments :lol: Like quite a few of my Bwana pieces it really does look better in hand. I often wonder about his customs when he lists them but once they arrive I am always impressed. Gaudy? Yes but I like that when it's done right and this guy complements my Bwana shelf quite nicely. The hair looks much cooler in person, is just plain fun and reminds me of the 70's. Funky for sure but certainly not for everyone. That's just fine with me. Now if a few of you would like to sell me "better" examples of Mibora I would begrudgingly consider your point. :twisted: I would have been worried if Andy didn't hate it but I'm surprised no one lamented the customizing of an unpainted gold glitter Mibora.

I'd poked my own eyes out before they'd had chance to focus on that aspect! :D

if you don't dig Bwana's style your not on enough drugs so A.go do more drugs and come back later or B.go have a beer and look at a production piece :D


I'm going to have to politely disagree here; I use a lot of drugs and I still don't like Bwana's style.

I think Bwana Spoons does amazing work and nearly all that I've seen are awesome. Just check out "eat balls" on Flickr. But this Mibora is totally funked up. In fact nothing like what I've seen from Bwana. Kinda weird.

this totally looks like Bwana's work to me. I would think just about everyone knew it was his work without anyone posting his name.

I think I would had liked it if it was painted a little more cohesively and without the addition of the hair. There's just too much going on for my taste. I also don't care for the Deathra arms. I usually like Bwana's work but this left me feeling like what was going on when he pained it.

Sure had me fooled. It was more like someone plucked out different parts and put it together randomly.

You probably haven't seen a lot of his mashups then. They are terrible. Like the one with the mibora head, biskup dragamel neck, ojo body and globby arms. Or his backwards deathra.

I like that he tries new things but some of the mashups do not work and look incredibly forced.

it needs to help the FBI with info on who did this to it...

and then the FBI needs to put it in the witness protection program a.s.a.p

Remember kids . . don't do drugs . . . stay in school! (or if you do do drugs . . . at least lock up the art and craft supplies) :twisted:

Wow, I actually think that Mibora custom is fucking awesome! Bwana did a great job in being very creative with this; I think the colored dreads and mixed parts are all nice touches! To each his own I guess... :D
