Can't wait to see it live Ryan, you have always amazed me with you ideas and craftsmanship.  :) Even before you was a Doctor.  ;) :) :)

Simply beautiful; I can't believe I've never seen anything like that before.  How does it shoot?  You should definitely enter it in BOM.

George Tsoukalas:
That is something!

M2A:
Cool as anything. Hats off to you for such work.

Happy New Year! Well this is a long time coming. I wanted to take more pictures and do a closer analysis but didn’t get around to it. The wing bow unfortunately broke at the classic last year. I was taking some shots to make sure it could handle being shot by someone else and it exploded in spectacular fashion!  (--) Close by was RyanO and some buddies who were able to console me. Weylin walked over after hearing the blast. The break was amazingly symmetrical and only one or two of the “feathers” actually broke off. I think there was only one piece we couldn’t find. Looking at the break I suspect the figured ash just couldn’t handle it. When I shot it before finishing, it was snappy and held a surprising amount of reflex. I would highly recommend people make something like this. The carving was the hardest part. I’ll probably make another at some point but it won’t be for a long while. Thanks for following as always!
