Probably just a little heavy on the top coat. You got any pics of candy green that you have done?

nope. I have never shot a candy green. is it normally that shade?

Re: Candy Green

that's the thing. it doesn't look like a candy in those pics.

I was thinking the same. Nice color though.

Re: Candy Green

I have a hard time getting that color to show up as a candie in my pics too. That looks spot on for what I have done too.

Re: Candy Green

I agree, candy colors definatly look alot better in person than on a picture...

Re: Candy Green

It's the lighting you guys have, it's not complementing the work at all.

Here's how you get a nice candy shot (and this works for me with my Fuji, but maybe not for you with whatever camera you're using):

I turn the flash off and use fluorescent lighting (the one over my pool table specifically)
I allow the light to fully heat up/come on
Then I just move around the part until I get a nice bounce of colors and lighting. Because that's honestly what makes candies so awesome.



Now, I'm no PC or photography pro. However, I bet you guys could really add to your skills by getting a good enough camera that really takes pictures equal to the quality work being done.
