Comments on this Color?

[STRIPER LOU]

Hi All, I'm looking for some comments on this rainbow multi-color pearl acrylic.

Extremely difficult to photograph.

A customer is going to put it on a full black Avet. This is not an in your face color but a multi toned, very rich, deep, pearl. Very classy looking IMO.
Its not completed yet and sometimes seeing it on the reel can make all the difference in the world.

Will try to repost again when its all together but thought I'd solicit some opinions in the meantime and see what you think?

Thanks and have a great evening,  ..  Lou

Looks great. On black with minimal chrome, like an elegant car or a fine tuxedo.
Well done again.

Lou, as in all matters of taste, some are going to like this, some are not. I wouldn't make many important decisions based on the results of this informal survey.... there's not a right or wrong answer....

Gorgeous, Lou --

As usual, a piece of art.

If that photo is somewhat accurate as to the Mother of Pearl effect -- any frame/plate color combo would look good except for silver, IMO (and that would look good also, if all silver with no black or red plates).

With the blush swirls of light blue and pink in there -- it would look great on an ice blue build, or pink.

Best,

Fred

Yep, pink reel.  Wait til Aiala sees it.  You'll reel her right in.  Dominick

Lou,

In my opinion that knob would be the highlight of any reel it was put on! But,  I see blue (ice blue especially) , red (or pink?),  or a blacked out reel really "popping"  with that handle....only one I'm not sure about until I see one, is silver.

Also, now that I think about it, and "mother of pearl", might set off a green reel to perfection!!!
Just my "newbie" 2 cents worth!!!
Awesome either way!

That's exquisite. It'll look really sharp on a black reel (or any reel).  Aesthetically, it has a sort of cosmic quality. In your photos it looks like a cylinder of stars, nebulas and galaxies suspended in deep space. A miniature alternate universe sized to fit in the palm of one's hand. At least that's how I see it.

Pearls go with anything~ says the wife...

Be interesting to see how that actually gets applied, technique-wise.
