My Squier Strat

UPDATE: I've received a lot of feedback about this piece, so i figured i'd get around to answering your questions. Thanks for all the comments!

Q. Awesome and all, but won't the ink smudge?
A. No; i covered it with an adhesive laminate which'll prevent it from deteriorating.

Q. What did you draw it on?
A. I drew on a regular ol' pickguard, albeit one covered with a large permanent Avery label. I used Sakura Microns for the actual inking. I drew it in pencil first, then erased.

Q. Do you sell this kind of work? Will you make me one?
A. Heck yes! Whether you want to send in your pickguard or you want me to buy a new one for me to work with, it's fine with me. You can even tell me the subject matter you want me to base my drawing off of. I won't do it for free--it takes a ridiculously long time--but i'll do it for cheap. Contact me and we'll talk details.

Love it! I've always wanted to do that on my pickguard, but I just didn't knew if the ink or any kind of paint would stick. So I never did drew anything because I was afraid of messing it up.

Yours looks really cool! bout how much time did it took you? :)

hey there. this is top notch work. inspired me to create my own! im used to doing custom art on guitar bodies with paint but never crossed my mind to do a pickguard. J

ust a quick question, how did u seal it exactly? was it like an A4 plastic sheet u layered over the top or was it some kind of spray?
