Nothing special, Iris Jr. Gent RB

[jjjaworski]

Nothing special. A friend requested a Jr. Gent RB with an Iris blank from BearToothWoods. It is a Christmas gift for a good friend of hers.

You might not think it is anything special, but I'll bet your friend will. Very nice work!

To be on the safe side I did paint the tubes flat black ( primer ) and painted the inside of the blanks with black acrylic. I mixed a bit of the black in with the epoxy as well.

It was the only blank I had in this color and had no backup plan

Being a novice at taking photos , I always try to take them in natural light in the shade to reduce glare and reflections. I got lucky I guess .
