Re: Bone Fish
I am not sure how you get that finished texture but I absolutly love how the birds eye stands out around the chamber. Crazy and amazing once again!
Re: Bone Fish
Absolutely outstanding! Shocking, as none-pipeish as it can be but somehow I adore your creations. Kudos!

Re: Bone Fish
If i didn't know that a master carver designed this unique naturally looking pipe,i would assume that mother nature brought it through centuries of evolution into this world.
Amazing birdseye !

Re: Bone Fish
I know his secret--and I will tell:
He obviously uses a really tiny dremel to carve each tiny crevice into each pipe.
I can't believe you guys couldn't tell .

Re: Bone Fish
I thought he focused his mind on the pipe so hard that it simply formed itself according to his will.
Is that not true? I feel so disillusioned...

Re: Bone Fish
I figured he just deprived the briar of calcium until it developed osteoporosis
Really great work. Truly original.
