Eddie Van Locity and American Velocity (yes, its another Velocity Dyeing post)

I just finished these two this evening. I am very happy with the way they came out. The Eddie Van Halen one was done with hot glue and the American Flag was done with Gorilla Tape.

Are you going to try and add a little black to the Eddie on? Can that even be done, both dyeing black, and only dyeing a little bit black?

It is very hard to mask like 95% of the yoyo which is what I would have to do to add some Black. If you have a suggestion on how to mask the entire yoyo except for a few streaks of black I would like to hear it Smiley I planned on the dials being the black in the guitar.

dude oh my god... that is so freakin epic... I'm a HUGE EVH fan, and I almost ordered a custom Charvel Jackson Guitar with the coloring done by Eddie himself..


This is one of the greatest color jobs I've ever seen for a yoyo

You could TRY and coat the whole thing in glue and cut away little piece off it, not sure how that would work though, i've never dyed anything.

Yeah Sole, that's what I was thinking. Like, paint the glue (I don't think "dipping" would work) over the entire thing, let it get "gummy" and then use a toothpick or whatever to remvove what you want dyed. You could make it be sort of messy, just like the real guitar.
