Mark,
you pen is beautiful. You have a good eye for matching material to kit finishes.
I'm also impressed with your photography. You almost always use a different background or prop. Can you sent me a pic of your setup? I like the lighting you get and I'd like to see the setup and location of your lamps. I can't seem to place mine where i get great results like yours.
thanks,
Gregory
Greg, let me answer this. I've been lucky to visit Mark at his home a few times and the ease at which he seems to do his pics make me sick to the teeth!!!!:frown:
Once his pen is finished to his extremely high standard. he simply goes outside his little shop and plonks the pen on the concrete step into the shop.
Click, click, job done. No lights, no tent, nada!!!!!
As for the finish.......
In his shop there are several 'finished' barrels that look stunning to me and I'd love to have done a finish like those!!!!! These are his REJECTS!!!!
And while his pics really are fantastic, I can assure anyone that even they don't do the pen justice. You ever see one of those fancy paint jobs on custom cars where it looks like you could dip your hand into the liquid looking paintwork? His finish is just like that!!!:biggrin::wink:
