Yeti Pipe #27- The Heretic
This is an interesting commission for sure, and it actually comes with two stems, the one depicted, and a churchwarden- I just shot it with it's standard stem though, because it's the one I based the composition around. The customer asked for an additional churchwarden stem on the side, and it doesn't balance quite as well visually.
So anyways, here she is.
Behold away gents!
Oh yeah, critique is always welcome, don't worry, I have thick skin!
Cheers!

Hi Yeti,
shall we have a look on the chuchwarden version ?
It seems to be a really good one, I like the shape.
But is it your photo ? it looks like a mat or soft (satin) finish...
Best regards,

It's actually a very high gloss piece, I just lit it very softly, so the highlights are subtle. If I hold it in the sunlight the high gloss is VERY pronounced.rijks wrote:Hi Yeti,

Oh, and I suppose I can probably go about taking a photo of the churchwarden version- I'm not that big of a fan, but hey, the customer requested it.

"but rev, isn't smoking a sin?"
well I suppose if one were to smoke to excess it would be a sin
"but what would be smoking to excess?"
Why smoking two pipes at once of course

Re: Yeti Pipe #27- The Heretic
Welp, that name is taken, we could name one "The Anti-Christ" if you like, or maybe something a bit more reformed, like "Zwingli"
Re: Yeti Pipe #27- The Heretic
how about pelagius? Waldo of Lyons? Origen?

Great work with great grain/birdseye.
The only nit I will pick, and it is strictly a personal one, would be to have just a little more meat under the chin.

I see what you mean Chas, I'll definitely keep that in mind if I re-visit this shape!oklahoma red wrote:Great work with great grain/birdseye.

Re: Yeti Pipe #27- The Heretic
Beautiful!
In the 1st pic, the stem angle seem to be a little high, although on the 2nd it looks OK. But that's being said out of pure jealousy!
