That looks cool Brad

Brad, just thought of something. I used to do a lot of calligraphy and pen and ink work. I wonder if colored inks would work. they have  a washed out look  to them on wood. Have you ever messed with ink? Or water colors, that's an idea if you sealed it well.

Gonna be a looker Brad,

[bradsmith2010]

yes I have used ink and watercolor on wood arrows, and it worked fine,, just depends on the look you want,
I wanted a more opague look for this, so went with acrylic,, but choose your weapon and be creative,
and thanks again for the postive comments, I hope to get more done today and will post

[bradsmith2010]

[High-Desert]

That's impressive work. Can't wait to see it complete

[bradsmith2010]

well now I have to decide if I want the bottom limb to match,, or just go crazy on a new design,, hmmm

[simson]

Looks good, go wild! not symmetrical!

[JWMALONE]

I'm with Simson, go wild, kinda of ying/yang type thang. Maybe same basic design with colors reversed or something.

Dang Brad, that's looking pretty sweet. Didn't know you had that all bottled up inside you. Thanks for sharing and making it a paint along to. This is better than watching Bob Ross.
