Only Tarnished Alphas Can Play

[BenChiew]

Please post your Alpha images showing some of the tarnish markings. Lets make every Alpha a different Alpha.

Damn. The tarnish is nice on yours Brandon. Almost looks like gun blueing.

Those look VERY nice! What metal is used for the Alphas? Stainless steel?

 

[persco]

Aluminum. Then plated in Electroless Nickel. I'd buy one if Jason made a Titanium light.

I see you nickel tarnish and raise you copper tarnish

 

[tab665]

if anyones curious, the above light is a shorty bespoke that Jason made me. the light is stone washed, it has a 3 amp driver with customized UI, a 90 CRI xml-2 that puts out a little over 600 lumens, and a TIR optic that provides a tighter hotspot than his usual offering and an artifact-free beam. I used Microsoft paint to come up with the machine work. Jason delivered on everything I asked and made what in my mind is the perfect light.

That copper tarnish is very very nice!

Now THAT is art.

Tab665, that is a very nice light. Well done!!

Not much tarnish, but I want to play. I guess Switzerland is dry and germ proof.

nice clean.
the saudi heat, and the hong kong humidity made that happen to mine.

Nothing besides my hands and my pockets. I live in a humid climate. Maybe that has something to do with it.

crazy humid...makes the alpha beautifully darken..
