This customer sent me a brand new SFS 9MM FN in polished blue for some work. I stippled the front and back straps, pulled the diconnect and then did some trigger and reliability work. The finished product is shown below. I matted the lower frame and then blued only the lower frame. The combination of the deep blue/black polished slide and the deep blue/black matte frame is striking.

Ok, here are some more pics with a lighter background and some more light. I think that it shows the color of the pistol better. I just have to keep working on it until I know what shutter speed, light and flash combo works best. I have even thought about building a light box to take the pics with. This will have to do for now

That has to be one of if not the best looking Hi Powers I have ever seen. Awesome work!

Looks really good to me .. How does the Stippling feel?

Jess - again some lovely eye candy :smilez: - I have as in your other thread added two returns beteen each of your pics - they do get a bit confused with each other when ''touching''!

Stipling looks just dandy and of course the BHP is (IMO) just as classic a shape and pleasing to the eye as JMB's other great creation.

Wow! That is a fine looking Hi Power. Somebody is going to be very pleased with that.

That's what my BHP would like to be when it grows up. Beautiful!

Very nice work. I can see you take care of all the little details. Lot of thought went into that project.
