For real! This should be the basis for a custom wudtone colour. It's just too nice.Quote from Gavin1393 on April 22, 2013, 19:59

First up, today is Anzac day. I always reflect for a while,and have a thought for the safety of our servicemen and women on active service in war zones. I am a retired serviceman myself, even though I did 20 years in the RAAF , some of my service was in the Vietnam era, and desert storm, I never served in an active war zone.
LEST WE FORGET
On to the build...
got 2 mist coats onto the body now, and a good coating to the neck,just allowing a day or two before I get some more onto them.
The pic's don't show the darkness of the reddish colour from straight on .

AJ, Personally - I like the script from the red and gold version maybe a bit more gravitas - that said, if you're putting it on the headstock, you might want to go with a clear background rather than the red - if it's not in the right shade (and it can be a real pain to get it just right), I think it would look off against you're beautiful headstock - love the depth that you've got in the colour.
What I think would make it special would be for it to be in a metallic gold, I have a few vague ideas on how it could be done, but nothing concrete.
