The amazing painted ripstop of Scott Hampton. Scott has been
handcrafting his flying works of art for awhile now.
His kites are known instantly because of the special painting
that he does on the fabric. Each kite that he makes is
unique
since it has been hand painted by Scott.
The colors and the gradations of those
colors are unmatched out there in the kiting
world.
*Because Scott works so
hard to get
the paint onto his kites it is highly advised to never fold the kite,
always roll it when putting it away.* If the kite came with a
plastic tube it is wise to store and transport the item in
that tube. If you get enough of his
pieces one
day you may wish to invest in a hard case to carry around all of them
without completely disassembling them!

the care and feeding of your Aerial Art please go here (lots of pictures!).
Feathers are painted feathers.
Not from any bird that we know of, but obviously one
that is colorfully painted.
These Feathers are great to use for any use and every use.
They are 11" x 4" and come in lots of colors.
Each feather has a loop of line at the top, slip/clip/hang the feather
anywhere you wish.
We keep a random selection on hand -if you have a
specific color pattern request, or wish a large quantity
please
ask.
You can see some of the color patterns that we offer in the bottom
right hand picture.
$6 each (10 or more please email for special pricing)
They work great to
mark a trail
for someone to follow
Feathers look
great hanging in a garden
as a small moving accent
Feathers are great
to make a garden of-
just attach them to the end of a stick in the ground
and they will flip and flap in the breeze
Banners
Occasionally Scott will pull out some banners out of his bags and
decide to use them or to sell some.
Lately he has been moving onto a heavier banner colth material and so
the 1.5oz ripstop nylon banners are looking for new homes.
Each banner comes with a telescoping pole for it, you just need to add
a ground stake and you are good to go!
At this time we have a pair of 20' banners for sale.
These are big banners, they are 4 feet wide!!
They are a matching set, but we can break the pair up for you if you
want.
If you would like both of the banners they are 520$ shipped in the US;
or if you want just one they are 280$ shipped.
Send an email
to claim these!
POSTERS
In the mid 90's Scott did a limited run of prints.
There are three different ones, and each is highly collectable!
These posters show the kites of the day! And each one comes
with a list of which kites are which.
You could use them as a test for your kite friends and see how many
they could identify with out peeking!
This is the last batch of the posters anywhere, and they are
individually signed and numbered by Scott.
Scott went to each and every kite designer to get their expressed
permission to do these images. The red text is not on the
prints....that is just here on line. Grab
one of these prints when you can!

KITES
We have a few brand new cypods up for grabs!
These three wing flyers are great for all sorts of wind, and the color
just pops on a cloudy day or a sunny one.
Cypods come in a tube about 50" long (the leading edge rods are quite
long), and when assembled are about 3' long and about 2' wide.
They are whimsical, fun, serious attention getters. In the
time that they are not flying hang them in a corner of an office or a
bedroom too. These
are all individual.
Because each one is hand painted no two are exactly alike another one.
Personally, I would love to have a school of about 10 of them to fly
together. Here is a picture of three flying together.
Cypods are all GONE.

These guys are all different, some have tails, some have extra wings,
some have one eye, some have two,
some are forward, some are backwards, but they are all beautiful!

them (the longs rods go inside
the leading edge). Cypod Assembly
