Ditto. I lean toward the more traditional wraps and veneers but very nicely done. Also, I keep my drums in the bedroom so that would bother me as I slept. lol.
Funny Post
Well, think of it as a "traditional" Orc.
Very cool project. Not my taste either but still very cool.
It's a laminated printout using UV resistant ink of a design that I prepared in Photoshop.
Forgive me for perhaps stating the obvious, but this would imply your technique would allow for printing a drum wrap with virtually any image , from anywhere, on a drum. That's astounding! If you care to look past the traditional wraps, the potential for producing mind blowing custom drums is amazing. I think you are onto something. Nice work! Why not make a thread showing your process?
Superb job!Bowing
That is cool.
Good job. :cool:

Well the process is rather involved and requires some intermediate to advanced computer skills. It's just not that easy to explain. But I take your request as a compliment. It means I succeeded at taking something challenging and making it look easy enough to describe in a thread here. I do appreciate that.
What I can do is tell you the basic elements and then anybody with a mind to can go and figure his own way of doing it. Here is what you need:
[LIST=1]
[*]Photoshop Editing Skills -Intermediate to Advanced Level
[*]Artwork -I use public domain art or obscure unsigned art so I don't get sued
[*]A competent print and laminating shop, I use Bumwrap.
[/LIST]
If anyone wants to try and tackle one of these wrap jobs, I'm available to help. I used to be a web developer and designer and so I have some fairly good graphics skills, and you do need that to properly plan out and prepare the wraps for best effect. I'm glad to help, but it is time consuming work.
This is one cool snare~! Great graphics!! Fantastic job very well done!

Again, very nicely done. I think most guys here are actually most interested in step #3.
