beach Posted July 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Well happy Wednesday everyone and here's a surprise, this kite is by Mr. Scott Skinner of the Drachen Foundation whos style always reminds me of stained glass because of the layering technique he uses.....Also for all that do not know, ANYTHING by Mr. Skinner is both a treasure as well as pretty unheard of cause thats not what he does, I was so honored when he was willing to accept the challenge and make us some kites.... Scott has traveled the world sharing his passion of kitting and in my humble opinion he is an ambassador to kites and this way of life and I am very honored to call him friend. These photos do not do this style justice as I do not know how to photograph it so you can see the stain glass effect when the sun shines thru it.....

KiteLife Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Kevin and Scott's entries are both great, but I'm particularly keen on Scott's integration of the Rev logo... Not the typical "wedge" application, which generally doesn't match the artwork. Keep 'em coming, awesome!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beach Posted July 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Well let's see I have to do photos on some kites, get others finished, figure out how to do the auction, oh ya any idea's on the aution set up.... My thoughts are a auction list on the site which I can adjust each day, then have all bids coming to me and I'll put them up.... Would some one explain to me where I pull these nutty ideas from, you got to admit I keep it fun.... Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdvoracek Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 What about adding Carl Robertshaw to the mix? Hear, hear! A favorite flier and handsome kite is my Carl Robertshaw. Glad that Eliot Shook is in - without his mesh I would be grounded on our windy days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beach Posted July 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Well was going to put some photos up but there was no place to take them this weekend, so with that said bear with me for a day or two and I'll get some up very soon.....

beach Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Well here's one from the Mesh master Mr. Eliot Shook, his Masterpiece Rev designs have really been a hit world wide and in truth I fly one myself because his kites just always seem to know what I want.....Eliot is co-owner of "Flying Smiles" and in my humble opinion one of the best dog gone kite stores in the U.S., truth is Cath his lovely wife is the brains of the outfit.....If you have not flown this kite then do so cause what they bring to the table just always puts a smile on my face ever time......

Perfect, absolutely smooth, like butta, wonderful reverse. He also makes a mid-vent, wider strips of mesh. Love mine, see my avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
