Yummy Yumi!
« on: January 01, 2013, 19:40:00 »
Hey!
Here's an easy custom I've had on my mind for a while. It's the traditional samutai bow, the Yumi; it's unique shape allowed the samurais to shoot arrows while riding on a horse. I just used two basic PM whips. The paint isn't completely done yet, the handle will be black or red.





Hope you like it!

Nice!

I didn't know there was special bow for horseback.. :-[

The large black bow reminded me of Alec's Black Radly, from the Nightrunner series (Lynn Flewelling)

HEY Arnaud! I missed this thread....I must blame the title (I read "Yummy Yum!" thinking it was some children custom at the ice cream cart.
I have often thought of making this bow and spraying it with short alternate black & white sections
or with red & white sections.
I only dare think of these difficult customs and parts but you, Arnaud, you just make them whenever you feel like it!! BRAVO  :xmascheer:
I know I've been talking about japanese fighting monks for ages and something tells me you might beat me to it, only IF it interests you ;)
