Roger Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 just finished about seven hours worth of tooling on this one. i wanted to show it before it ends up black Quote
Ambassador freak Posted January 27, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted January 27, 2008 Beautiful !!! Tell the dude they don't make black anymore and natural is the new black.

Ambassador abn Posted January 27, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted January 27, 2008 Anyone who commissions a skull carving is probably gonna want it black. I think it just comes with the territory. If you like natural colors, maybe you should start Sheridan carving your seats! :D Quote
Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted January 27, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted January 27, 2008 AS ALWAYS YOUR TOOLING IS ASWUM.....question. did you use a beveler on that or was the background tool used as a beveler ? Quote Luke

MADMAX22 Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 That is sweet dude, it would look really cool I think if it was that dark brown fade to black like that other seat that you did. Good job Quote
Froghunter Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 Superb! Your seats are just amazing! Super clean! Definately a level most of us hope to obtain! Quote ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pounding on dead animal flesh, who woulda Thunk it!
faceOdd Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 I don't know what color bike it's going on, but a really, really deep midnight blue is a very nice alternative to black. As is a very dark, almost black, red. Not that I personally think there's anything wrong with black : ) Of course, a customer who wants black wants black. It's just one of those 'upsell' options you could use when negotiating the details. I usually talk people out of brown because I prefer to work with black. But I have to make a little kid's bag out of glow-in-the-dark bright green. THAT will be interesting. The only part I'm looking forward to is sewing it with some awesome white Nomex cord that I got at a garage sale - 7 big spools for $5! That seat's a beauty!

Contributing Member rdb Posted January 27, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted January 27, 2008 I love the fighting battle axe sweep of the design. That's just great work. If the customer wants to cover it in green flouro paint, it doesn't matter...we saw it...we know. Take his money and move on to your next great piece. Quote Web page Facebook
