Thanks Guys.
This new camera has put my photos up another notch, so I am happy about that. Still some improvements I want to make with my setup to try for another notch higher again, fingers crossed.
This blank, I backpainted with cheap silver nailpolish. It gives it a nice subdued look. I was tempted to use my usual black paint, which would have lifted the colours a lot more, but I am happy with how it looks with the chrome pen.
