Has anyone ever made a War-Moth Warmoth?

[stubhead]

I mean like a WAR-moth, like war horses, attack dogs, war chickens etc. I've seen projects with a lot worse starting point than the death's-head moth:

or almost even better, a faded one:

There's pretty much a natural creepiness to moths in general, even before Buffalo Bill popularized them so much they could've called the movie "The Quietness of the Moths" or something. All that caterpilling around.

:icon_scratch:  ........ Can I have some of what Stubhead's on 

 

[Scuffcakes]

Seems a brilliant piece of inspiration right there.  Have at it dude!

Along those lines, who pronounces Warmoth as "War Moth", and who pronounces "War-muth?" And what does Ken say is the correct way?

 

[SlartiBartfast]

I definitely say War-muth. That's just GOTTA be the right way to say it.  :icon_tongue:

Same here, and when I hear the other way, it's usually got a subtle question mark built in.

I pronounce it "Wutzthenextonegonnabe"....Y'know, a nice spalted top and a bit of woodburning could yield a rather convincing War-Moth....hmmmm...

While we're on this note, why is the logo a turtle? Could have been a moth... :tard:

I believe that one has to do with a military nickname.

It is indeed prounounced, "War-Muth", Ken won't have any problem correcting you if you mis-pronounce it.

Definitely the Faded one  :icon_thumright:

The faded one would look great on a guitar.
