FHD DYED DISCS

[bears_rule]

My name is Brian and I am a Raleigh, NC disc golfer, I claim Cedar Hills as my home course and FHD = Fly High Dyes. I only do high-end multi-color dyes. Normally, I never post any of my work online and only people here in Raleigh have been able to buy or view my work. So here for the first time I am revealing my dyes. Please do not be over critical of my work.

I do appologize for the quality of the pictures. I will eventually use a good digital camera instead of a crappy cellphone. I have a lot more dyes I would like to post, but quite a few of them are too graphic in either a violent or adult xxx theme. Some of the discs I have done for people I am unable to post due to the privacy of the artwork and not wanting it to be reproduced.

Nice work, I think my wife would like the first 2 on the 2nd set.

[I3ooI3oo]

Nice work....

[mobster]

awesome work

[splash_4]

Very nice. Stunning.

[Dillon_Gourley]

Very nice.

[Ball-Z]

Wow dude, That is very impressive. What do you do, dye then re-cover some areas before the next color? Is this RIT?
Damn good!

[hippiediscdude]

Thats some nice stuff there man. I cant imagine the time that you have into those. Really nice work!

[Roc1Time]

Thats some nice stuff there man. I cant imagine the time that you have into those. Really nice work!

I second that

[skurf]

Those are some of the most professional looking dyes I've ever seen. It reminds me of the Discraft SuperColor series.

[skottyb]

WOW!! kudos!! some of the best I have seen...

[fretgod321]

the pink floyd one is awesome

[Neophyte]

Great work.

[bears_rule]

I use Rit dye and yes you have to recover each section to prevent color bleeds. I actually was trying to make the dyes look like Disccraft super color series, so thanks for making that reference.

As far as time invested in each disc IT IS A LOT OF TIME. One disc I did for a Dead Head was a recreation of an album cover OXOMORA(something like that). I spent 22 hours on the disc and it had 38 colors(including tints). Individual sections on the disc added up to over 240, so I had to make sure that 240 little individual cutouts stuck and did not bleed.

Thanks for the positive input, I will be posting up 3 more tomorrow. If anyone is interested in seeing some of my more adult work, I can always e-mail you the pics.

Thanks for sharing.

[Skankin77]

Very nice work!

[skottyb]

I'm just bored on a Saturday morning drinking coffee and had to stop and give you kudos for your dye jobs.. very impressive!! some of the best work I have ever seen... keep it up.

[skottyb]

Oh also are you selling, I have been giving discs for b-day gifts.. sign me up if you ever want to sell..

[srm_520]

If you are selling, what is the going price for your designs?

[Nosh]

Definitely dye work to aspire to. Great job!

[bears_rule]

I have only sold discs to people here in Raleigh and in person. Price has varied greatly depending on how well I know the person vs. what they could afford. For instance I traded a new BB aviar with the little girl in front of the moon for 3 new star discs. I traded a new star wraith with the demon starburst for a 2nd run Ce valkryie. I did the confederate flag and girl disc for 15 dollars and lunch at Taco bell, it was his used star shark to start.

I would also like to note that a majority of my work is one of a kind and I will never reproduce them again. I sign my discs FHD with my name and I write one of a kind on it.

The discs that I intend to reproduce I will only make 12 of them and they are signed FHD with my name and the number the disc is in the series.

I will be posting some of my work on Ebay in the near future.

[sub ceroh]

WOW... That is all I can say WOW...

[elmattarino]

Seriously man, wicked stuff! Planning on starting up dying my own here in the next week or two. Keep it up man, best dgart I've seen.

[tbird888]

Incredible work. ANybody that tells you different is jealous. I know the Aoxomoxoa cover. It's very detailed. I imagine that disc looked amazing too. I'd be interested in seeing more as well.

[mynameisdbabz]

[Ball-Z]

Damn, I thought I was the only Eddie disc dye out there.

[Minnesota highflyer]

[I3ooI3oo]

I would love to see more of your dyes
I3ooI3oo1337 'at' yahoo dot com

[Marty McFly]

Two words.

Time Management

You would have to have that to make those discs look like that! Great work and keep it up!

[t i m]

As cheesy as this may sound, I'm most impressed by the Alice in Wonderland -- how many colors is that? I can't imagine how anyone has the time and patience to do that many layers of dye... or are you using some other process to get all those colors on there?

[Roc1Time]

[bears_rule]

Thanks guys. The Alice disc is extremely clean and I wish I had a better picture. The color count on Alice is 42 including all shades. Each character has roughly 6-9 colors and only the twins repeat the same color. I am actually getting ready to add more detail to the grass and tree. Total time invested is 14 hours, I actually felt like I rushed it.

I am an EXTREMELY PATIENT individual, I could watch paint dry and never blink. RIT DYE and time is all it takes.

[bears_rule]

I still have yet to take pics of this disc with a decent camera, sorry. Here is a few close ups. Only detail that is hard to see is the numbers on the clock.1074

[bears_rule]

Any Simpson Fans out there?

[mashnut]

Excellent, I like that one. I love how clean all the lines and details are.

[EclipticOne]

I think my wife wants to buy me that alice one... k maybe she doesnt.....

[JR Stengele]

those dyes are about as good as it gets. VERY well done sir.

[mmyersdisc]

haha nice simpsons one...I would love a family guy or simpsons dye like that...I hope that alice one doesn't get thrown....that is to nice to be thrown and scuffed up!

[bears_rule]

1082

1083

1081 I swear the that the girl's name on the disc is MUFFY not Buffy.

I have also include 2 of my older discs. I originally was not going to display my older amatuerish work, but hell we all started somewhere right.

[CwAlbino]

very nice dyes man, I think most on this site will agree you are the van gogh of disc golf :P
I personally like the simple ones like MUFFY the best, but I admire the dedication and time you put into the colored ones. They are truly works of art.

[McRick]

Hey Brian

Great work man always enjoy seeing your new stuff when I run into you. The Alice in Wonderland is crazy good. I actually like it better then the album cover one. I need to make me another VW disc as I lost it up in Rocky Mount

You've inspired me to make my own chessire cat dye on a disc, I have no idea how i'm going to do the purple stripes, any tips/advice would be great. I'd also like to see some of your work if you have a link to some pictures.
Thanks

they make pink and purple rit dyes, goto a craft store such as jo-ann fabrics or michaels

[JCthrills]

How are you tinting/mixing your Rit? & do you paint them on or dip? Very, Very impressed with your work, I've done some intricate designs but nothing comes close to the masterpieces you've done. I've had an image printed & hung on my wall for inspiration that has 12+ colors in it & I haven't quite collected enough or learned how to properly tint regular colors. Skin tone is probably the hardest & I haven't been able to pick up a box of taupe (I think thats the closest rit makes to a skin tone?

[zenbot]

I really want to do the crappy internet thing and be over-critical because you asked not to....but...they are incredible.

[bears_rule]

Nice to see people are still posting on this thread. I was hoping that I had included enough color work to keep people interested in viewing these dyes.

I am considering doing a video like the current youtube guys did. Obviously I would focus a little more on multi-color and less on the basics.

What does everyone think?? Make a Video????

[JCthrills]

A video on your fine line work & tinting would be awesome.

[crouchingwombat]

Video!!! haha, I would probably watch it as long as you used nothing but music from Top Gun

[Ball-Z]

MAKE THE VIDEO!
