I really REALLY like this CBH

I'm not sure exactly why I like this so much, but every time I go to Barberman55's website, I find myself looking at this over and over again. What do you think?

    That is a great looking bustie. Only one problem, needs to be liberated from the plastic.

    I'd say average for the grade.

    Colors nice and even, but the image lacks the luster I would look for.
  • I like the look as well- it's a little off the beaten path of the dark/light gray look that is common to bust material.

    The one I always like that has an unusual look is an 1834 O-116 that DJCoinz has posted a couple of times. I find myself looking at it again and again.

  • I like the original look, so I can't blame you. If the toning is deep, it will hide luster, but that doesn't mean its not there. If the money is not too crazy I would go for it. My limit would be 750 ish without looking.

    It looks like a really nice Bustie even with those pics.

    I give it a image

    Going by the image it definitely looks like one I could enjoy. Might be a scan. Me thinks folks are too spoiled with all the great images people post lately.image
    Actually I like the look of the image and at least it doesn't appear to be all tweaked out (with unrealistic colors and surfaces) like some folks seem to like on here.

    I believe the scan (i.e. not a picture) may have you fooled.

    MikeInFL, thanks for posting after me so I didn't kill another thread. Ooops, I might kill it now.image

    BTW, it looks like a "picture" to me. A scanned picture, but a picture no less. Haha

    If the price is right, you should make her yours, or someone else will spirit her away!!

    Good catch! Whoops, should have said "photograph" not "picture". Sorry for the confusion...Mike
