Hand of the Creator...custom FP

[Twissy]

The brief for this commission was a pen to based on Michelangelo. The hand of Gas and Adam was the suggested way to go, but it couldn't be a copy of the actual work. I aint no artist, and couldn't even trace the original, so I decided to take pictures of my own arms and use those. I did a number of poses, but decided on the one closest to the one on the ceiling.
The material I originally chose was Trustone as I thought this would reflect the ceiling with the cracks, but it looked a bit too busy. I might show this one at a later date after I change the graphics on it. In the end I went with Pearl Opal Mutt.
C&C's welcome.

Someone copyrighted the ceiling...well I'll be?!?!?!

Your 'pose' seems to work just fine, and the coloring is really nice!

Thank you guys!
The restriction on using the original was imposed by the customer. A good thing really as at least it made me think a little!

A Brilliant Idea and Execution John,
The Photograph Arms are terrific, the Colors in the Blank are Spectacular.
Love the Clean Lines of the Pen, and the Essential Matching of the Cap, to the Body.
Did you make your own Transfers?
Quite apart from the decorative aspects,
Congratulations on the Expert Craftsmanship you applied to manufacture the Pen.
Brian.
