I have been thinking about trying this pattern for a while. I really want to come up with my own unique pattern for damascus. This is my first attempt at trying something new. The pic below shows what I have so far. I kinda threw it together quick, so I am sure if I paid some more attention it would be more symetric and consistant.

Anyway, let me know if you think this one has any potential, or am I just barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks for your helpand please feel free to tell me what you really think.

Well I think the simple response is give me as much as you don't want.I will take it all.

I like it.
 
very nice. I've always liked the bolder patterns over the ones you need a magnifier to see.:)
 
I have no clue what to call it, I haven't decided if i really like it or not.:) I am going to try a couple different variations during the forging and see what happens?

What would be a good name?
 
very cool pattern ! i like it...but dead people:eek: spooky name...none the less Great job!
 
the watusi dance or swril. i like it! or shaki zulu if you want some of the dark side of human nature.
 
OK, I feel better now...I'm not the only one that saw the faces :eek:
Call it "Ghosts & Goblins"
:D
 
I like it alot. I look forward to the pattern that you are truly happy with. That will be a great one!
 
Cool looking piece Laredo :)

While I admire your desire to come up with a unique pattern, I must say it will be no easy task.

Holding oneself to the confines of the few frequenters here and in some books won't even touch what's out there.

Go to some shows and really, really, really look at what's being made...it quickly proves to be an overwhelming endeavor. But possible...I hope ;)

Keep pounding :)
