Media Blasted GG's

[rwechsler]

I'd love to media blast an Ody dripping mode to use on a P+18, I think that'd look awesome.

Just the thought of putting one of my beloved GG's into a blasting chamber makes me cringe I like the look of them but would I do it - NO FRIGGING WAY

I believe that is surely a traffic hazard. Autos passing by would surely be blinded by all that gleaming!!

this style of GG will get dirty often and also it will get shiny where you touch it often. In about 1-2 years it will be a mess.

No it won't.. I promise.

I took #1090 out of the box, then out of the plastic bag, and then out then unrolled the micro fiber cloth. I noticed the brass was had darkened, but still a high gloss shine.. Rather stunning . Then in rolled it back up. Rolled up #444 (it was sent immaculate) after putting in a brass tube, and placed them both in the bag. Sealed it, and put it back in the box.

I'll probably take one to a local meet in a few week.

Did I mention how stunning the deep amber brass was ?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder of course, and I see these as a beautiful variant on something that's already a stunning piece of art.

The majority of the wear and tear will still be on #992, which, when polished up, is stunning in it's own right.

I am so glad that #444 arrived in your loving hands so quickly. I must admit, it is in beautiful shape. When I did use it, I always kept it in a felt pouch (from Super-T).

I would love to see a pic of it with the brass tube!

Karen,

It's stunning. I pulled out #1090 to compare and cuseman process looks identical on both.

I'll get a shot. A cell phone pic won't do it justice and my nikon succumbed to 10 years of abuse. Once I replace, I'll set up and hopefully do it justice.

Best,

A family shot.. Still a cell phone unfortunately. DOF sucks on the edges, but was mostly looking to capture brass/matte contrast vs variants.

Note #444 even as matte with cuseguys process is reflecting the brass for #1090.

And new camera on order.

I can do the stage and lighting to get what I want, just lack the optics..
