The Dye A Day Thread! (Part II)

[NuNinja]

it was actually org white out, but it was streaky, so he spray painted it. he actually cashes regularly around here. he said he didnt originally even like the stalker but after he sanded the bead off, boiled it to make it gummy and flat top, he loves it.

 

[RK311]

he better watch what he says around people come tourney time. In fact you wouldn't see me play any round for any money with him for that matter. :wall:

If your not tuning your discs you're missing out. I don't care what you do to your disc, you still have to execute to make good shots.

 

[roggenb3]

I started dyeing 3 months ago. Most of my discs that are not straight tye dyes are inspired by television or books. Attached is my Breaking Bad collection.

When I do a disc that is a character, I put a quote on the back. These are, from left to right, "Who is it you think you see?", "You're nothing to me but customers!", and "I AM THE DANGER!"

 

[JAKE master]

you boys are fools. its a perfectly legal disc. the dye is fresh, the stamp is not. get over yourselves

 

[roggenb3]

Has anyone ever just mixed flour with dye until its as thick as paint and painted straight on the disc? I tried it last night. Worked ok, but pretty light (although I'm not sure how well vibram soft takes dye since this was the first one ive done on that plastic). Reminds me of water color painting.

I really don't mean to be that guy, and it really doesn't matter in unsanctioned play. Heck, you could throw Aerobie rings on thousand foot holes, throw trash can lids, or throw discs with layers of stickers & paint all over, as long as the guys you're playing with don't mind. But they were just talking about sanctioned tournament play, per rule

Burn!

Hopefully we can get this thread back on track...

Here's one of my latest. Some of the colors blended a little more than I wanted them too but still came out pretty sweet nonetheless.

 

[roggenb3]

Here's the first disc I ever dyed. As you can tell, I was super sloppy and got dye smudged all over it, but other than that it turned out ok.

It's a Sirius Polaris LS 1.1, or well, it used to be. Now it's Super Serial.

Looks awesome. What type of dye for this one?

Same ones that I used on the others. Little mix up of prochemicals dyes and pylam. I got another sitting in the dye bed right now. My bros old yellow grip line spike disc. Hopefully comes out good. I have yet to dye grip line plastic using this technique. Might take a while to set. Probably gonna give it a full 24 hours in the bed at least.

Posted my 2 Nebula tries in that thread but liked this one so much, I figured I'd throw it in here, too. straight idye poly with no acetone added. old champ valk I had laying around:

 

[Odyssey113]

Beautiful champ valk Bmxpunk! Gives me a funny feeling in my pants I love valk's. Got a glow valk in a bed right now. Was a little reluctant to try the nebula on it but if I dont try I wont know.

Here's how my bros grip line spike turned out. Just rinsed it off. Pic doesnt do it much justice and their is no natural lighting since its almost midnight. Gives an idea though. Pretty happy with the results on this one. Loving this dish gel. I like your idea too about trying brainwaves with this stuff. I may give it a go as well if I can find some extra discs.

 

[Disc Fiend]

^I am curious how long the dye will stay on the grip pads. Nice work though!

 

[BennettUA]

Glow Meteor for bravethrower43:

Legacy Patriot:

Legacy Icon Ghost:

Storm Trooper, Mace Windu edition -- Cryztal Buzzz:

 

[bigmanbailye]

absolutely love me that Windu stormtrooper disc. nice to see you post some more dyes Bennett.

 

[Odyssey113]

Those dyes are sick Bennett. I might have to get at ya again for some custom stencils. Love that Meteor and the Patriot a lot! :thmbup:

 

[Odyssey113]

Here's one of my latest. A glow champ valk. Still glows well in the middle. The stamp didn't like the dish gel but still held up a little bit.

Haven't posted in a while

Hey all, haven't posted any discs in a while so I thought I would share some of the Christmas gift orders that I did this year. Although the last one has a Dynamic Discs logo on it, I did the dye job. One of the guys from Dynamic asked me to add the logo to the dartboard dye.

 

[Rob Edwards]

A few more

Here are a few more that I've completed since Okthrowberfest.
