Re: Hmmm... decisions, decisions... Build as is, or finish?
Not yet... I test fit a few of my necks on it last night, and the neck pocket was routed a little fat; I'll need to laminate the neck pocket with some veneer.
I also need to rout out the insets for the back panels, give it a light finish sanding, and decide how I want to do that Dark Tower motif on it (and put a finish on it!). Right now, I'm thinking the text over the pickups, and then painting the Gunslinger between the bridge and the strap button.
I found this
https://500px.com/photo/94361143/the-man-in-black-fled-across-the-desert-and-the-gunslinger-followed-by-beau image on the 'net, and was thinking of focusing in on the figure, blowing it out to 2 tone, and adding a gun to the right hand, and using it as a stencil.
Still not decided between woodburning it on, or painting it as a silhouette... If I woodburn it, I can do some careful sanding to bring some details in the figure, like clothe wrinkles. I'm not a good enough painter to add details like that in sepiatone, which is how I would I want to keep it.
Either way, it's gonna be a while before this one is complete.
