spacedog Report post Posted November 22, 2022 And finally, the end. This bit got the better of me. I could not think of a way to represent the strings on the harp and also use the background tool. So I left it blank behind the harp. Again, if anyone has a solution or thoughts on how it could have been done, please comment. There might be someone else wondering how else it can be done, besides me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First and foremost WELL DONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My only thought with the strings here would be to have backgrounded and dyed then because you have used some paint here and there .... paint the strings in . Again WELL DONE !!!!!!!!

Thanks Chuck. No worries, just looking for ways to keep improving. There are a bunch of clips from the movie on YouTube if you are interested. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spacedog Report post Posted November 24, 2022 I thought about putting something on the inside of the guitar strap, but decided not to do any tooling. Instead I put the first verse of the song, Surly Joe, that Buster sings in the saloon. At the end of the song everyone throws their hats in the air so I put some of those on the inside too. I just used some of the Bordeaux dye to paint them on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doc Reaper Report post Posted April 2 I rightfully enjoyed the movie myself, much like I appreciate the product that you set out to complete. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brokenolmarine Report post Posted April 2 I enjoyed the movie, but find it hard to link that actor to the lead in "Old Henry," an awesome movie. The strap turned out great . You did a fine job, something to be proud of. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Littlef Report post Posted April 2 That is really neat. Well done. I love it! Ballad of Buster Scruggs is a good movie. I've been thinking of trying to make a gun belt like his. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
