the under wraps are candy apple red it got dark after the finnish.

fishaholic18 02-09-2007 07:55 PM

Nice job dude.

pbadad 02-09-2007 09:11 PM

Dave those wraps are sweet. I seems you epoxy over the completed guide wrap. I've been light coating the undewraps then 2-3 more after the wrap is done. Pending on the outcome. Do you use any CP on the nylon thread. The honey wraps blue ,black and white look nice and braight.

pbadad 02-09-2007 09:11 PM

Toby.. Great job on the butt wrap. I think I could use a lesson!

Yes, no need to epoxy underwraps 1st, usually 2 coats will do the trick. I try to plan my colors so I don't need to use cp. Had a few bad experiences with cp...:err: I avoid whenever possible.

Thanks guys. I am always in awe of Fishaholic's wraps though. SWEET stuff! :shocked:

tlapinski 02-11-2007 02:59 PM

Reelecstasy, I like your clean even lines,nice work dude. A little criticism 4 u. Imo, I would try to build up your wraps a little more so that you see less under wrap, about 50-50 fills it in nicely. Also, I like either a light or dark under wrap, when you use a color that is neither its harder make your wraps stand out, they kinda clash against each other. Again, awsome work!
