I hesitate to post this because my pictures are total crap and makes everything look really dull. However, this is the first pipe I have ever made that I am genuinely proud of. A lot of firsts for me on this one. First shank cap (this one is made of deer antler,) first military mount stem, first sandblast.
I know there's still a lot that can be better so I would really appreciate your critique/advice. Thanks guys.
I loved the way the bird's eye looked when it was first blasted...

I think the elongated stem makes it look elegant. I like the shape a lot. The shank cap is rounded with a bit too much of a radius I think, but otherwise, I think it's a good shape. Nice work.
