Hey fellas,
Here's the lastest bow. Part of a trade I made with thomas h. The first pic post is some shots for the color scheme, the last two pics are of a genuine bow, and a pair of crow leggings (where I got the design pattern from). Second set of pics is the usual unbraced/ braced/ full draw etc.
Tom said to make the bow 40# @ 25" and that's what she came in at. It's a self bow of ash, and the double curves were steam bent. I have relieved the top limb to even the bend out since looking at the full draw pic. The bow was smoked, and greased. the paint is acrylic, and then "knocked the new" of it with a little 600 grit. Final finish is 4 coats of mink oil.
Hope ya like it Tom,
rich
