Wow, that is mind blowing. Great job, Yaypudding. Absolutely worth your trouble. Mine is in the post for a like treatment

And here she is......
here's another shot in natural light
Oh my, that is beautiful!
Amazing work! Just wow.
Thanks to my phone, I could have posted this from anywhere.

That is amazing pudding! Of course, now thanks to you I have to get one without the wrinkle finish so I can do this too.
Thanks for all the compliments everyone. Can't wait to see what you guys can come up with.
yeah probably, but I chose the swirl paint method because of my total lack of artistic ability. I found this project to be more about good prep and finishing practices then anything else. Go slow, be neat and you'll mitigate most problems. I will be happy to try and answer any questions for those attempting this.
I am doing this to a friend's guitar a month or so from now. I may do this to a reo in the future

I beg to differ, art comes in many forms, and your work has as much artistic value as the next. Really nice work!
This guy I knew, was dating my gf's friend at the time is now a cop up in watertown. He apparently is very busy on the weekends because of the Ft. Drum boys, he's gotten more than a few lickings breaking up bar fights and what have you.
I believe it. Drunk soldiers are the worst... Especially when they're running in packs!
Tell your buddy he's always welcome for a beer. I avoid the bar scene like the plague... I prefer a nice craft porter in the comfort of my apartment!

@xobeloot well, he's not on my list of favorite people to hang with so I think i'll spare you his company. My bro just got back from Munich and brought me some dunkels from a bunch of diff. breweries, I'm more of a pilsner guy myself.
Well, I started stripping the anodizing off my Grand. My pocket was already doing a pretty good job, I just helped a little with some 220 and my dremel. I'm not too sure what I'll do with it when all the blue is gone. Any other cool techniques you have thought of yaypudding?
I have been looking into doing some kind of chemical etching or maybe some copper or other metal plating. I really want to do a copper plated reo and use some patina solution to give it that aged look, then clear coat it to prevent further oxidation and to seal in that copper stank.
These require using dangerous chemicals and I have no knowledge as to the proper handling or where to acquire them as of yet. I don't plan on doing anything until the spring time, so I'll have ample time to research and source materials.
