rebuild and finish

ok so finally got around to using the neck I got of ed (came with the FB2)....
the body started life as this (all maple with zebra wood veneer).... Image

this is the neck ...... Image

put them together....throw some paint at it and shazam you end up with this...(I took progress photos but can't find them so I am picking the are on my dead camera)

the photos don't really do it justice, the flames have a bit of detail that doesn't really show up that well.....and the skull is a sticker (I wish I could airbrush that well :lol: )
