Toma_Hawk01, had received 100% of the Purple Ship's soul transfer, deep from outer space. The life forces of the Purple ship created the pulse of life to the Toma_Hawk01.

A cool strap for the Toma_Hawk...

I love the color of Salmon!
 
Reddish Orange to Orange to Pink... It's All beautiful colors to me...

[toma_hawk01]

I was looking at Vermilion color variations on other Alembic basses and colors from the the Toma_Hawk's actual crown (shown within this FTC), I believe the Toma_Hawk's Vermilion top and back color may match the colors within my drawing rendition below.  
 

 
Again, nothing is better than the real thing, and I'll be happy with any of many hues of a Vermilion wood, but its fun to predict while waiting for the moment of truth.

Here's the actual crown wood from Mica's picture I used to build and render this new Toma_Hawk body.
 
There's many factors for which which computer drawings are limited over real live pictures.
 
So, until Mica shows the actual pictures, my drawings validates nothing.  
 
Mica's real pictures, are the key to my sanity and monitoring progress.  
 
For a picture, speaks a thousand words.

Awesome computer drawings Mr . toma hawk01 !

[Enzo]

I never seen a more realistic computer drawing.
 
I loved the hearth beat one, very cool !

[toma_hawk01]

Thanks Sonicus and Enzo.
 
I could draw this bass with my eyes closed now...
I can see it from every angle, and dimension.
 
It's everything I see a bass should be, and I am very humbled, and gracious for the support given to this end.
 
Thanks Fellas.
