I had a few extra frames on my last roll, so finally, for your viewing pleasure, I present The Viceroy. :cool:

Stunning pictures.
Looking at them actually hurt.
You just made me love the previously-ugly Viceroy. I'm not sure if I should thank you. ;)

Very nice photos! You made the 3D feeling out of them and let one understand how it actually looks like in real life more. :)

Nice pics Lance. The Viceroy looks very nice with the black grip.

I know how you feel. My wife got it for me last Christmas and I didn't think I'd like it as much as I do. But when I opened the box......WOW! She handles great and to me , looks even better. This is just one of those swords, in my opinion, needs to be seen and held to be appreciated.

Thanks! The perspective given of the ricasso really shows off the work involved. Very pretty! Aren't you glad that you didn't sell it?

Thanks! I wanted to capture the things I really like about the sword. I especially like the way the third one came out, it highlights my favorite details. There's something about how the light interacts with the curves of the blade, which is why I wanted to take the shots outdoors under natural lighting conditions.

Yes I'm glad I did not have to sell it, I would have missed its beautiful presence in my room. :)

If anybody would like a larger version on any of the pics let me know, I would be happy to provide them!

Great pictures but I really didn't want to see anything that would tempt me to spend more money for a while.

I always sort of liked this one on the Albion site but seeing at an angle giving a better look at the 3D complexities of the ricasso area puts this one high on my wish list. :cool:

Have to pay for a custom order first and hope the Stock Market goes in the right ( UP ) direction. ;) :lol:

Good photos. :cool:

Those are fantastic photographs, the best I've seen or any sword, I'd say. I'd like to buy a Viceroy some day because of them.
