Latest attempt

I decided to get in the holiday spirit and make disc for Dying for a Cause but, apparently the rigorous scrubbing I gave this brand new Ion before applying the vinyl wasn't rigorous enough? I had hoped to add shading on the teeth in the back of his mouth and some parts of the letters but with the black coming out so spotty I figured it would all start to blend.

Proton is notorious for doing that. I would say applying the stencil you touched the plastic and left oils from your skin on the disc. The Protons pick that up and hold onto it really well, making you dye not want to take. When I dye Proton I wear latex gloves when applying the stencil. Makes for a lot fewer opportunities to grease it up so to speak. Good dye none the less, next time it happens rinse the disc and take a q-tip with plain water and rub the affected areas. Be careful not to lift any vinyl in the process since it is hard to tell and you may get a bleed. That should clear it up and then, like this time you did a black outline, just dip it again to get everything the same color.
 
Koogs I like the flames, reminds me of a truck I had in High School!

Here's a couple, a Westside King for my bag and a Wraith for a local.

^^^ I'm actually feeling very conflicted today about being the lucky owner of this disc. Jeff was amazingly great to deal with, generous with his talent and even sent me back part of his fee when he decided not to experiment on one other disc. I hope he gets through his present ordeal, and wish him well. :(

Thanks Stonewall. I think those two and the Yoda are my favorites also. I have quite a few others that I plan on posting soon. Just trying to show my work to fellow discers!

Might explain why he was reluctant to unveil some of his techniques. ;)
