Some work on drums (many images inside)

I spent the past two weeks refinishing my drumset. It used to look like this.

Simple black wrap around the drums.

So I had this idea to refinish it.

Removed the glue with thinner, and sanded it smooth, then dyed it.

Then lacquer;

It looks much better after what you've done with it.

I love how it turned out.
HOLY carp! You went out of your to refinish your set! THAT'S AWESOME!
That looks amazingly beautiful.
It looks awesome, is there a word for beutiful but natural?...i believe its Tranquet...
I think you mean tranquil? Anyway, you should consider using Firefox.

I'm glad this turned out well. It was rather worrying while working on it. The downside is that my house STILL smells of lacquer.
