cSuttle Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 If you're wondering why there hasn't been any undates on the SciFi guitar project, it's because I've been too busy working on client projects. Stuff for me always comes last However, today I just finished something really cool and thought you might like to take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR Yes, the feathers draping down from the neck and the ones on the back were painted on. All the rest is either shell, recon stone, and two pieces of acryllic for the center part of the neck and the top of the body. There was just no way to get that effect with inlay so I turned to paint. I wanted the feathers to be somewhat transparent so you could see the material behind it.

Just out of curiosity how long does something like that take start to finish and what does it set your client back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just out of curiosity how long does something like that take start to finish and what does it set your client back? Actually, it's going on the front of the guitar. Grateful Dead, style cover go on the guitar below the bridge. Here is a picture of a different one on make on the guitar. It took about two weeks from start to finish, but that was not working time just elasped time. As far as pricing, I don't like to talk about that on forums. Email if your really interested.
