Jeff,

I know this is a Scooter Tribute bass. When I looked at #6, the first thing I saw was a cat staring back at me. Those two short horizontal dark lines about halfway down are the eyes. If you look at the central (darker) portion, it sure looks like feline head shape-ish to me. The bottom has even got a bit of kitty drool! (our older cats always seemed to drool for some reason).

The lighter "rays" eminating from the darker portion seem a bit better defined to my eyes (when compared to 4 or 5).

It's your bass....pick the one YOU like =) Mind if I live vicariously through you?

Toby

There is a beautiful butterfly shape at the top of #6. Too bad it is too close to the edge...

Sorry to post in an old thread, but that first piece has a piranha swimming towards you. It has the downturned mouth right between the eyes, and nostrils even.

Maybe it's just me lol.
