Incredible bow, Eric. Your sinew work is one of the smoothest I've seen so far. Paint job is like awesome, it is great that you did it with earth pigments.

Very nice indeed  :) not sure how you apply the paint but maybe if it was water based that was what screwed with the tiller?

She's a real beauty, High Desert. How do you grind the pigments to get such a smooth paint?
