Its terrible, I think you need some more practice.  But I'm a generous guy and will take this one off you hands so you don't have to look at it. Lol

Holy crap first one!  It makes me scared to try, very nice.
The best made plan won't get it made the way you planned.

If my first glass bow had looked as good as that I would have been stoked. give yourself a big pat on the back ol' son!

That's plum pretty! I especially like the tips! Looks like you've been shaping them for years! In reading your posts, the toughest part about this build was making the form. The next several bows will be easy! Good work!

Nice job Soy!

Yup Bodork, once you've built a good form a lot of the work is behind you.
