Simon, it's just decorative tissue paper for gift wrapping, etc.

I did a how-to post a while back on how to apply that tissue paper.  I learned from Pat.

I broke one of our rules. I dressed her up before she was shot in and now she's out of tiller. I have to soften one limb and I'm afraid she'll come out light so I'll probably pike her a bit and see. To be continued!  (R

Hey Pat, I'd be happy to twist you up a hot pink and orange fast flight string!

That's the problem, Clint, or at least one of them.
 Thanks Steve but Clint has already supplied the string(s) for Tacky. Apparently the string is the least of my problem.    ::)

Yep It is hard sometime to wait on the finish work but as you said it is always a good idea. At least you don't have to bother the back for your retillering. Very cool looking for sure.  :)

Let's see if I remember how to do these pics...    She is osage(probably from Clint), 65" t/t, she pulls 47#@28", with antler tip overlays(painted red with gold polka dots and decorated as tackily as I could. The backing is animal print tissue paper and gold paint. I have to thank Clint for the other tacky stuff he sent me to dress her up, strings and string materials, fur silencers, black patent leather gator impressed handle wrap and red leather cover for the arrow shelf and strike plate. I made a leather shelf and added it to the side of the handle. Clint sent other stuff just in case I needed it. Thanks for your contributions, Clint.

Thanks guys. This has been a fun project.
 All the pics show on my computer. Are you using a smart phone? If so, I don't know what to say.  :-\
