Charles G Mosse Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Hey everyone! First off, I'm new - so don't lay into me if this is in the wrong section or some bullcrap! Aaaaaanyway, i've recently decided to make some things in my spare time to maybe sell at the monthly artisan market we have here, and the first things i've done is pretty much cover drums in comics. i think it looks pretty sweet, what do you think?[attachment=104951:540517_10150634996556792_515646791_9539685_1718039412_n.jpg][attachment=104952:581001_10150639332031792_515646791_9552534_1146311243_n.jpg] anyone got any examples of their own designs/prints? thaaaaanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad3353 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Good evening, Charles... Difficult to really judge from the photos, but they look quite nicely done. Not my cuppa, for certain, but worth a shot as a novelty item. You never know, you may start a trend. Good luck with the venture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 The second one looks MUCH nicer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_5 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 yup, definitely like the second more than the first. Great idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I'm not a drummer (nor do I have one) but can't help but wonder what you're doing to protect it from the rigours of the road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdwardHimself Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 looks like a good job. I covered my drums in camo fabric once but then I realised they were buggering up the resonance of them so I took them off. This setup was just for a laugh really lol.

Dad3353 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I think you'll sell more as coffee tables, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
