Possible matching set

I am going to be ordering another cue soon and I think I want a matching set (player, breaker and a matching jumper)

This is what I have come up with so far using MS paint, I am getting really good at cut and paste:D .

I am looking for some ideas for the forearm section of the player and just some opinions on the design so far.

Hey Buddy, I like your idea. The cues you have come up with look pretty damn nice. I did the same thing with my player. I have a clean classic looking rosewood Jensen cue. I liked it so much I sent it to Mike to have an exact replica j/b made. The j//b is an EXACT match of my player. The only difference is the black ring above the wrap where it breaks apart and the two tips for the j/b are phenolic. While it was there I had another shaft made for the player. Player-3 shafts, J/B-2shafts. Sorry the pics aren't the best but it's what I have to work with right now. So needless to say I am a fan of the matched set.

I'D DO IT DIFFERENTLY......

USE THE BACKEND DESIGN IN THE NOSE. AND DO FLOATING BOXES IN THE BUTT. (I'M NOT A FAN OF REVERSE POINTS.

If you truly did those in MS Paint...D@MN! You've got some skills!

honest it wasnt that hard just took time,,,, i just cut and paste pics of all kinds of cues wood and ring work. you can change your cut-outs a bit like stretch them or squash them, that helps a little bit. notice the pics i made dont taper,,, its really hard to get a taper or points using mspaint.

that sounds good! i will do up a pic and post it.

i am a huge fan of reverse points or point in general! my last cue kinda pointed me out so i might try a box cue.
 
Here is a sketch that I could come up with. Nevermind the rings/dots inside the points, those could be in between the points up-side-down or whatever.

I am bad at drawing - and have always been - so bear with me. Let me know what you think.
