Title: Ocean Spray Kid's Bow
Post by: Weylin on April 27, 2015, 08:34:01 pm
Here's a little ocean spray bow that I made for a six year old boy in my class. These kid's bows are fun to make and ocean spray is the perfect wood for them. It's 15# @ 20" and 48" long. I'm happy with how this bow turned out, I hope Max likes getting it from his parents on his birthday.

Thanks, Dvshunter. It's a beast to pull back!  ;D  ;)

Thank you, Dave. I think he'll like it. I was pleased with how the colors came out on this one.

Thank you, Badlybent.

Thanks, arrowind!

Thanks, Sieddy.

Thank you, Chuck. Kid's appreciate quality too, it doesn't take me all that much extra time to doll it up a bit.

Thanks, Chris.

Thank you, Falcon.

I just noticed how the color transition on the tips are different from back to belly, I like that a lot.
