Smith & Wesson revolvers as ART.

Ditto jessebogan on the b7w's!
Can you tell me, in simple terms, how to do that? I have had other pix I'd like to do that to.

Also, check out Prisma. It's a phone app and can take a photo and do some amazing things!

There are many SMITHS that I feel are a thing of beauty, or work of art without artificially enhancing them, or images. Take a look at some of the fantastic photos on this forum! Bob
 
The theme of this thread is that BOTH are possible to be viewed as objects of beauty.
my profession for the past 44 years has been as an industrial designer and a graphic designer. Industrial photography has been the newest portion of my business for just the past 30 years, with firearms as my favorite subject and most published images.
This is one of my photos with the pencil sketch conversion.

IMO both can be viewed without having to choose between them.

Only my opinion, but I would rather look at a photo of the real thing! Maybe I am jealous because of lacking artistic ability. Bob
 
DRYHEAT's still life of what I presume is a postwar M&P reminded me of one I took of my lettered 1943 Victory. Boyt "43" holster, silver '43 nickels, steel '43 pennies, and of course the license plate. Certainly more documentary than artistic.

Cheers,

Bob

Somewhere, and I can't find it, is a book with line drawings of S&W products. I bought it maybe 10 or 15 years ago. It would go good in this thread.
 
While I am not in favor of turning a top of the line 'tool' like a S&W revolver into an engraved piece of artwork, I do appreciate the artistic ability of the engraver. .......... I much prefer this type of S&W art. My hat is off to you that can do this sort of picture manipulation to the point that it becomes very appealing artwork. KUDOs to all of you! ........
