Very nice. I notice the small abalone (?) diamonds on the other wrap.

Thanks Tom. The 'blings' are holgraphic silver tinsel carefully cut into small diamonds, with a scalpel and cp'd in place.

Very nice Steve. The diamonds are a nice touch. I also noticed the fang as well. How many coats of high build does it take to encapsulate that?

Thank you George. I use a mix this colder time of the year in Iowa(3/4 reg, 1/4 lite) of TM. Takes 4-5 coats to cover the fang. Super glue a small dab to get the fang in place. Also, I usually use a very thin file and file the thick end of the fang just a bit after the very first coat of TM dries.
