Starring ET and Bob Marley! It has only been on for 2 days and I have already ran out of fingers and toes to count the compliments!

It was so hard to get the pictures right with the stupid reflection off of the stoneshield material...I had to edit it a little.

Opinion?

The thick stoneshield material makes it look like the ET and bob are peeling, but it's just the light that goes under it due to the stoneshield being clear and thick.

I know...I asked the seller if he could make his whole hand black, but he refused... I'm going to work on patching it with some electrical tape.

They sell a ton of these on Etsy. All sorts of cool ones. I'm thinking about getting the one with Mario holding the apple logo. Either that one or ironman, with the apple logo where his chest thingy is.

That's what it is named when we make the material. It then gets re-branded to "invisible-shield" or "invisishield" after it is bought from us by ZAGG? I have my own rolls, the only problem is I have to cut it myself

PS: "Stoneshield" is THE original material name used by the military, which you now see being used my ZAGG and a different variation from others(different size thicknesses).

Yea not sure if the whole hand needs to be blacked out..... Just that tiny portion of the tip of finger would set it off IMO ....

Have you done it as yet ??? Give us a look lol

My bad after looking again and re-reading my post, i find doing this and making it look good in nigh impossible

I actually got it done late last night. Black electrical tape didn't look the same color black as the skin, black magic marker did, however! I just cut out two pieces of stoneshield, and colored each in with the black p. marker, and taped them over each other before putting it over ET's finger. Too much covering looked weird, too little looked too obvious. I just tried to match the other fingertip that was all black.

Here it is:

Looks a lot better in my opinion.
