    Default My Dovo back from the grave

    Here she is guys it's also going in the shave of the day. Awhile back I posted about the black cheap scales breaking on my cheap Dovo but it was a good shaver. So chapter 2 , Bill ( Pixelfixed ) offers to fix it for me, I only knew of his brushes, but his craftsmanship is on the Great side of the spectrum! So how could I say no ? He dressed her with Ivory scales and then made me a brush to go with it, so here it is and I have the only Dovo best with ivory and to Bill, you are a fine gentleman, and a skilled artist my thanks to you and my hat is off to you.

    It is very nice, it looks even better in person , the lines and the joining of the different materials is seamless , almost to nice to use , can't say enough about how much I like it. Tc

    There you go :<0) You just open the pic on your computer. It should open with paint. up top is [image] click it open and you see rotate by angle......pick 90 click and save .....done.

    Nice set by the way !
    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.
