That is really trick woodbender... Airbrushing.. what a great idea.
I have also put fabric under clear glass.. that worked out well also..
Did you free hand your airbrush or tape in a pattern?

bradford i do both free hand and patterns i draw and cut out with exacto knife. ive wondered about putting fabric pattern under limbs i bet it would have to be some thin cloth. is it difficult to do?

not at all. I cut a 1 3/4" strip for this 1 1/2" bow. Lay down a piece of wax paper on the bench and just really press the smooth on into the fabric. Placed it on the clear glass and did the rest.. It glued up fine and did not feel like it changed anything when pulling back the bow.
Most "normal" fabrics are plenty thin.. LOTS to choose from. I stayed away from the duck fabrics and canvass.

Bradford, would camo denim work under glass? I have a couple pairs of camo denim jeans I've over grown...
Woodbender, those are some beautiful lams.

They might. That is a little thicker than i would use, but as long as you make sure you get the smooth on all the way thru the denim it should work.
