Yomagic Anodizes: "Flawed" Anodizing UPDATE! (6/29/12)

Dude great Job! I’d Send you one, but i dont have any…

First up is Superstar I stripped from my collection. I decided to ano both halves completely differently for practice. I am going to end up stripping both again because of some flaws and to practice some more. I did this one two days and still working out some tweaks. Overall the came out decent but a stripping and re-ano would do the trick since im getting better. One half came out completely how i wasnt expecting but it looks cool.

Remember my camera sucks and it makes the yoyos look way more dull then they actually are. My camera actually broke today so now i have to get a new one.

Next is a Dif-e-yo that I had laying around. I dont really know what model it is but it doesnt have a bearing seat. This one came out exactly how i wanted. It doesnt actually look as dull as the picture makes it.

Lastly i did my Chief. Its a first run that i stripped and then annoed. At first i did a clear background with yellow splash but it didnt come out exactly how i wanted and has some flaws. I then restripped it and decided to do a two tone purple acid wash. It came out exactly how i wanted and looks amazing in person.

After:

These are what ive done so far and im going to do a Skyline tomorrow, so look out for updates

:slight_smile:

Try this: Blue and dark blue acid wash with black and yellow splash. It would look amazing.

I think that Dif-e-Yo is a wide load

I really like your acid washes. They have a lot if depth to them. I will be getting an ano job done by you if you start doing commissions.

I will say for one I’m not a fan of acid wash but I do see that you got your stuff under control. Any chance we will see some splash colors?

I’m impressed! The second one came out great!

Thanks alot for the positive comments. Ill try a splash on the skyline with the colors I have but im going to need to get more dye. Im at the point where im getting good results but I dont have the consistency down where I can take commision yet. At least unless someone wouldnt mind a little experimenting.

The Chief looks sick!

I just did my skyline and one of the halves came out exactly how I wanted…the other not so much but the half that did came out amazing!!! I’ll have pics later…let’s just say my best splash so far. Pictures in a bit

I did this skyline earlier. I did both halves differently trying to practice different techniques. The first half is my favorite ano job I’ve done so far and looks amazing! I love how it looks and i seem to have the technique down. I did a half fade type thing on the second half. You can see it in the pics but i did an orange acid/splash and a clear/orange wash/splash. Let me know what you guys think :slight_smile:

Wow!

I really like the second half of the Skyline! :o

Thanks :slight_smile: kinda out of things to ano now but I may find a few to do next

I’ll send you a couple lol

I mean if you don’t want perfected yet and wouldn’t mind letting me practice more on your yoyos then I’d be down but I wouldn’t do more then one for free. I’d be wasting a lot of material on multiple throws. I’d do a fair price but I’m still in practicing phase.

So can you anodize one of my Yoyos for free?

I was looking for a single person to do a free practice job for: It must be raw and in whatever finish you want though

Might send you my 888x…

I have a raw battosai i want to ano!

I think I already got someone to do a free job for but once I get more experience I will eventually take on commission
