Coming along, coming along.
I've given the sculptor permission to offer a few of these - No real idea yet of what the price for a finished, unpainted piece will be - Somewhere north of $500.00, I imagine.
Also (For anyone interested) - I started a tumblr account.

If I can offer a criticism: I think the hair is too long. I cannot recall Selleck's hair ever being that long on an episode of MPI. Just my two cents.

How about sewing a proper Hawaiian shirt for it? You'd need something with a small print, but it might be possible to make a miniature shirt!

I've actually scanned the real bird of paradise shirt and reduced to 1/3 scale. A company called spoonflower will then print some fabric, and I'll have an actual shirt made.
Yay!
