That was 3 of us getting together. JD couldn't make it [rat bastid] or we would have had the full 10% in the shot. I think the 3 of us together only have 10 still [maybe 11].

Re: #100 DNA starting to grow on me and new pictures


White spots like that are usually tiny bubbles in the paint - so as the paint goes on you get a little bubble which you can then wipe off after the paint's dry leaving a tiny round hole in the paint showing the white primer underneath. I haven't totally figured out why they happen yet - it could be a speck of dust on the guitar before the paint goes on which causes the paint to pull back from it into a bubble. But I've also had some guitar bodies that seem to get more bubbles even when stripped back and swirled again (so lots of bubbles on two swirls on the same body), whilst other bodies have no bubbles. Sometimes they only happen in one colour (with the DNA's they seem to be mainly in the black) which seems to happen if one colour is a bit thicker than the others. I like the bubbles; they add more interest to the pattern.
Nice swirl.
Rich

Never saw that 10% pic before - very cool
A nice illustration of some of the different "breeds" of DNA...





(Looks like a monster couch there too )

Re: #100 DNA starting to grow on me and new pictures


It would be easy enough to photoshop more of them in there...if Kat and Glen will allow it

(that's a jab at the jemsite photo constest, btw)

Re: #100 DNA starting to grow on me and new pictures


that was kinda the point i guess - to show that there are soooo many nice ones. there are some that aren't as nice but that really comes down to personal taste.
i like his swirl - it has a nice balance and some darker colors.
