Like I said before, I'm posting to this to encourage people to keep their pictures of their drums in one thread, as opposed to polluting other threads with their off-topic pictures of their drums.

Just 3 of my multitude of Imperialstars in my 10x20ft storage unit/rehearsal studio:

O.K. I'll post it, but it's only because you guys keep asking me to. In the large format people like so much.





BTW I'm repainting my snare. I'll post it when I'm done.

[QUOTE=sticktodrum]what are imps made of?[/QUOTE]

don't you just hate it when people post ridiculously large pictures of their kits? at least here's a place for them to get it out of their systems.

Oh, and sticktodrum, an Imp is a mythological being similar to a fairy, frequently described in folklore and superstition.

Imps are usually described as mischievous than seriously threatening, and as lesser beings rather than more important supernatural beings. The attendants of the devil are sometimes described as imps. They are usually described as lively and having small stature. They are usually, but not invariably, assigned male gender.

Imps are the least evil of all demons, described as dark, shadowy creatures — while mischievous and somewhat destructive; they do not go to the extremes of, for example, gremlins or poltergeists. Imps are shape-shifters — preferring a shadow-form similar to either a weasel or a spider; they slink or skitter about, running from one pool of shadow to another. The trickery ascribed to them is, generally, confined to missing, misplaced, or moved articles (socks, keys, etc.) and stubbed toes. Some accounts of imps claim that they are desperately lonely, and always travel in pairs or in mobs.

Some accounts of imps treat them as capable of being turned to good, because they are so desperately lonely they would do almost anything — even commit good deeds — to have a committed friend; however, it is regarded as almost impossible for any imp to fully forsake its "impish" ways.

The Ancient Greek demi-god Pan has some features in common with an imp, but this is unlikely to be a direct connection, since the imp concept probably belongs to Germanic rather than classical tradition. However, Imps are sometimes described as fond of music, and capable of being charmed into making a promise to aid, and "do good" in that manner through music — though there is always likely to be some mischievous trick to be attached to the barter.

Imps are sometimes described as a subunit of a pack of Brownies, but also to describe certain children's behaviour. Furthermore, it has been adopted as a brand name for a variety of commodities where an image of small size, liveliness, and cheekiness was sought, for example the Hillman Imp car. The acronym IMP (for "Interface Message Processor") was used by early Internet routers.

I was going to do another size joke, but three is my limit.  Sorry...But don't you hate it when people choose to go off topic on a specific thread.

Nice yes? I'm repainting it.  There is one half dollar size section of the drum that just will not hold paint.  It's really --ing me off. I have sanded, re-primed, heated, etc. and still the same thing.  There is some chemical reaction happening.  I sprayed it with auto primer last night, then put it under a heat lamp. Hopefully after I sand it tonight it will work.  When I'm done I'll post SUPER HUGE PICTS of it, because I know some people really like to see them.
