Description ...or maybe enemies. Two worst cans of paint i've ever owned (german monty and dulux volcano orange). Both are past their lifespans though, having been mixed/remixed to the point where the valves are cooked.

Taken on the floor of my garage. Contrast touched up in PS, but that's the extent of it. I think maybe i could have set up the placement of this one a tad better. Just seems to be a little off.

No idea. Can't get krylon (at least not much at any sort of reasonable price) here. The new montana blacklines are lower pressure than the old ones (which were like blasting paint with a freakin fire hose) but they're still not thick enough to be viable.

Goldline is the sort of shit you'd wanna look at. I doubt even you could make those drip.

Yeah, although the new goldlines go alright, pressure wise.

Blackline is still cat's piss at a premium though.

As i look at this more and more i'm starting to like the whole shot less and less, actually. Should have kept it to just the dulux (bottom) can instead of having hte upright monty, because it throws out the composition.

Yes, right now the handy is the best part of this. Back to the photographic drawing board again.

wasnt a snipe, the counter weight of the tiny almost invisible hand holds up the heavy weight of the cans.. thats what I like about it.

there is something slightly odd about the layout of the cans though... maybe if they were more alive... some disfocused junk in the bg?... I dunno

rustymarc In reply to mors3 [2005-01-25 10:19:28 +0000 UTC]

Well my original composition included a big ol' puddle of water from my dad's car, but that got lost when i was ramping up the contrast to a workable level.

I'll set up a diff, perhaps better shot tomorrow.
