Decisions decisions!!

A friend wants me to build a train theme guitar. We're finally getting down to details. He has a room with a big display for his train collection and wants a guitar for the room. He took a picture of his own trains since we couldn't find a good train theme box that he liked. I'll apply this picture to the box. Below is the picture he sent to me. The top is after I modified it a bit to give it a more rustic look. Which picture do you all like best? He likes the clean, but I like the rough....its his guitar but I want him to be happy with it and I'm thinking he'll like the rustic look better once it's done. Thoughts?

    I like the clean one. It will age like toy trains in time.

    Pick, he voted for his picture....rough is ok with him. I think I'm going to use the certificate as the box seal labels. I'll definitely put some of that to good use. Thanks!

    Pick, I'm going to use the t-shirt transfer method you told me about. I used the kind for dark shirts on a previous guitar. After getting some poly on it, it actually brightened up. For that guitar, that was a good thing. I'll be using the dark shirt stuff again on this one.

    what pick said.

    depending on your transfer method .  your image may lose some clarity  anyway  ..  pre rough may end up too rough .

    and remember ... (after the fact)  .you can still  rough up clean  ,,  but you can't clean up  ruff .

     ps .. i started another  train theme  a while ago and  modded  up some pics  that were not  used  . ill send them to you if you   think  you can use them .

    Top.   Very good choice.  Also, for a look, the Anonymous Pick just did a train theme.
