Congratulation and sorry cem, i think your each small pattern is beautiful but them as one the all and the one is not beautiful, and the pink is a good color for the man's weapon :D

Looks like a very nice and efficient bow, Cem! Can we see it strung (drawn)??

I used acrylic colours too and I think it?s a good alternative for those who don?t want to wait 3 months after each paint job..., which can easily accumulate to a very long time for the decoration of a bow. Hope it doesn?t crack from the bending of the limbs, though...

What period is that pattern and what does Hatayi and M?nhani mean?

Best regards, JJ

JJ:

T?rkish art of painting name is Tezhip, M?nhani and Hatayi is a kind of stylized flower. Tezhip is very old art and learning period need a lifetime. I test it ,it do not crack when strung.
This pic. takes before painting.

This is a really nice bow - congratulations.


Question: on your last pic with the strung bow I discovered wrappings around both limbs starting from the grip to the kasan. Are/were they only for temporary use during tillerung or what was the reason,s? If this is still the same bow, a what stage did you cut off the wrappings? - or did you use paint to cover them nicely and/or to avoid delaminiation?

Reto:

This is the same bow, snew wraping is just for the very first time tiller, it is temporary. İt is my style, I made it for the safety to protect the bow from seperate the snew layer. After the first time tiller the bow I take off all the wraping. İf the snew backing is well covered at the edges , do not need the wraping, it is just for the safety.
