    Dragon vs Pine Cone

    So, is it just me or does the dragon scale milling on this marker look more like a pine cone at a glance?

      Maybe it should have come in a recycled box scented with patchouli…

        Armadillo skin? Bit of a stretch with the shape of scales but, it made me think of it's skin/shell/scale, none the less.

        looks like overlapping "scales" from top to bottom but imo wuld look better "pinecone" overlapping from front to back

          Looks to me like a $500 price increase on the same marker

            If an acorn is such a threat, imagine the damage a pinecone could do. Who needs fire breathing dragons when things that fall from trees are so scary?

              Wow. A falling pinecone must sound like a sonic boom to that guy.

                This one always did say dragon to me, but the scales are facing the wrong way in my mind. That and they did not match milling with any other parts of the gun and that bothered me way more than the scales did.

                  yeah, when I first saw it I thought it was just a bunch of geometric diamonds since they're going the wrong way and don't really overlap that much

                To truly get the scale look, put them on a bias. By the way, scales are a bitch to clean paint out at the end of the day.
