Great shots, Holt! In that 14th shot, if I counted right, you nailed the facial expression. :clap:

Loving the aging on the gear, too! Fantastic!

Cheers,

Outstanding! The pictures are great, especially the whip and suitcase ones! Love the vibe of these pictures.
Without a doubt the aging is definitely a class of its own and I really can’t get over how good the colours of your gear look.

It’s not just that they look super accurate but it is also beautiful to see how all of the different shades of brown and beige work together while having a similar level of aging. I know from my own collection that this is a big part of making it look more authentic and complete. :clap:

Holt, your recent pictures made me reconsider the distressing of my Legacy LC I‘ve done so far, so I‘m back working on it :TOH:

Thanks guys! :TOH:

Tremolo! Indeed, its a big part of getting the LC look right. the brown tones have to go hand in hand and really vibe together. Thats how I see the LC too. Its just harmony in the entire outfit contra Raiders with the almost black jacket and grey/brownish pants and as cool as that is, the LC has just a better harmony.

Im glad I inspired you to take on your quest again. Looking forward seeing it. :TOH:

Terrific job as always, Holt. We definitely share an opinion of how gear should be done. I haven't tackled LC yet, but I will definitely refer to your work when the time comes.

"Well done, boy!" :TOH:
