I should be posting a new picture tomorrow - just talked to Bob and he thinks the blue-ishness will be worth viewing then.

Still needs some more blue, and I swear it's not clear in the middle!  

 

  Getting there - more pics next week. We won't stop until it matches the Blue Orca inlay.

Much better than the green tint! I know it's a work in progress, but it is getting there! Keep the pictures coming!

  On my monitor the color is somewhere between these two pictures, but the vibrancy is what you see in the one on the carpet. Despite the tinges to the blue hue in the images, there is no purple or green. I just blocked out the routes with black as I found them distracting.   It looks amazing!

There are reflections of the handle of my monopod on the left face of the bass.

Wow, it looks like ripples of water that Orca can swim though and ride playfully on their wakes!
Very soothing look
