The Dye A Day Thread! (Part II)

[FredVegasDGC]

All hail the Hypnotoad! This one is still being thrown by a beer league player here in KC.

Dan, did you create the background pattern? I've searched everywhere and can't find it. I was thinking about a disc with that pattern and showing it to guys who are beating me on the course and making them dizzy so they will shank one in to the trees.

Also a wonderful side effect from the shaving cream method. My Dude disc smells minty fresh...

Someone else did a disc with that background before me, but I had to recreate it from scratch. Here ya go!

What do you mean by small spins? Like smaller circles or smaller lines?

A new dye for this week

Okay, it's been a few weeks. Well this one took a while. Hand cut and a long multiple process dying job.

iDye poly background in a dish detergeant base followed by a little brush work. Then a brush work worm dye/shaving cream follow up for the foreground.

About 41 hours in all.

167 gram Star Katana...Started out white.

Thanks for the link! I see what you mean by less is more, they destroyed that disc, i would have kept the original over than mess of black ink they ended with, but to each his own.

Plastic bags can also be used. I actually liked them better (the color seemed to be more even), but it's very close. Both of these pics had less than a bulb syringe worth of dye used for each color.

Saran Wrap

Plastic grocery bags

 

[jaysin2719]

do they change the effect at all, or just personal preference?

If you look at the Saran Wrap one below the tree, you'll see dark green lines where the plastic stuck together and dye pooled, leaving darker lines. The plastic bags have a little of that but nowhere near as extreme. Really just personal preference.

A little glue dye from the other day on a Champion Archon.
