This is my first attempt at posting pictures from a hosting site. Hopefully it works.

Afurman.   Good looking bow.  Congrats on your build.  I love the look of it.  Tiller Looks pretty good to me however the pics look a little compressed possibly???  The outers appear they may have a little more bend then inners.  Possibly slightly whip tillered.  It’s hard to say for sure with pics like I said.   Either way it looks great and if it shoots well the job well done.  Enjoy.

Yeah I messed with these pictures for a while. It didn’t end well! Not sure why. I did have to compress them down but that’s never happened to me before.

 I like the style and look, tillering had to be fun with all of those knots, too. Like said, it looks compressed a little with 3" wide limbs.

Congrats! Almost looks like moisture content was a bit high in the stave when tillered but thats a guess.  Either way looks good. Like the look of those faux skins. I'd say you got this whole bow making thing figured out. Fades look a bit short in a few pics but I think thats just the compressed version of the picture. Look forward to seeing more of your work.
