Here are a few photos of my now completed Webley WG kit. I originally got this kit from Wade Egan, i decided that the job of giving the piece a really good finish was slightly beyond me, so i passed it to a friend of mine.
Here is the finished result.
Lots of screen caps from The Last Crusade were used in order to get some of the weathering right. I personally love it.

Your friend did an awesome job!
The pics are great, too! Did you try any pics without the flash, just natural Light?

Yeah but no matter how hard i tried the picture just came out blurred
This is the best one i could get with natural light, maybe when the weather is better i can take some outdoor shots
Thanks for the comments everyone

Natual shots look better to my eye too. The weather seems to be getting a bit brighter here over the last few days so 'll try and get some shots of it in the daylight at some point.
As a side note to add to this, when i got this kit from Wade it didnt come with screws to finish the handle or sight section. To solve this problem the best screws to buy are the ones that right under your nose in your home....power socket switch boxes and light switch box screws. You can sually buy a pack of these screws for £1.00 at a hardware shop.They are the perfect screw because they match the originals quite closely.

Natural light shots look more like what I see with my eye, so I try to use natural light whenever I can for my gear shots.
I'm no photo expert, but I believe the lens remains open a bit longer when the flash isn't used, in order to gather more light. Any small movement tends to blur the shot, as a result. I often take 10 to 20 shots to get one good one.
