One of the current players at Georgetown Prep got up with me to discuss a new dye for him and with a little discussion on the color variation and a recent pattern I came across we came up with this. He decided on going with Baby Blue stripes and a White/Navy Mini-Checkerboard pattern with the outside of the head still Navy. Read More…

The Stylin’ Strings crew are always on their game and this dye job is no different. SS dyed a Gait Torque to look like it’s made out of wood. Read More…

The Argyle Lip dyejob by Stylin’ Strings takes the lip of the head and turns it into one of the first true Argyle patterns with White and two color shades of your choice. Read More…

The Digital Camo dye job has been a long time coming for me. It has been done before by patient people with steady hands. I wanted to do my own take on it, and it took me a long time to do it exactly how I wanted to. To begin, I created a design on the computer in the shapes of various digital camo pieces. Read More…

Alright Playground fans, it’s time for another contest. Up for grabs this time are a few heads dyed by our own dye master, Max McCool. Some of you may remember the pair of Revolver heads that we had up on the site a few months ago. Well they’re back, and they’re yours for the taking! Read More…

A friend talked to me awhile back about doing a Halo themed head. This wasn’t anything too crazy but I felt good about it. I wouldn’t mind some input for some addtional ideas for a second Halo theme.

Brian called Dustin at Stylin Strings to complete the full stick to expose this great cause which is detailed more below. Read More…

A fellow “Man for Others” (Georgetown Prep Grad) got in touch with me awhile back about doing a UNC themed dye job for him. I started with the White Nike 2010 Legacy and began placing the stripes and doing the most difficult part, which is cutting out the “NC.” I have done the tar heel logo before and it’s fairly simple, however, the “NC” always causes me problems in getting the ratio correct.
