Anyone Have Examples Of Lightning Bolts?

[tinabanana]

I have a project where the customer wants lightning bolts (realistic not, oversize cartoony ones) all around the piece.

I'm just not sure how it will look on the piece, im a bit worried it might just look like cracks.

does anyone have examples that i can look at?

Here's a "Hammer of Thor" Sheath I did for a BK7 knife. I mixed white acrylic paint with some silver metallic and gold metallic paint, but you can't see it in this picture.

that looks good, thanks for posting it

my original idea was to just carve the lightning but spoke to a few ppl and got some good advice to do it thicker, similar to yours.

this is how it turned out
