Sapphire Fade?

[Clintus]

I love the new emerald fade finish for the Masters line. Has anyone ordered a Masterworks in a sapphire fade? Can someone work their PhotoShop magic and show me what it might look like?

Again, it would be sapphire blue, not marine blue:

Sorry for the ignorance... Why doesn't the image appear as an image attachement rather than a link? I thought that as long as the [img] code was utilized it would post the actual image?

The IMG only points to a webite URL. To attach an image, use the Attach file address and Browse to your file. Hope that helps.

Here's a sapphire fade snare...

Is that an actual finish, or did you create it? It's really nice, but I had imagined a true sapphire, which would be a lot darker (much like a royal blue). I think I've seen something close on someone's signature around here, but it was a deep blue burst over a tamo veneer Masterworks snare.

I was hoping to see it in a darker blue example - sapphires are a dark navy color.

no. Carl posted it under the name "sapphire fade". I din't make it up or anything. That is really an existing color and this is what it looks like.

I think the avatar you remember might be one of Drum313s photoshop creations (it could also be someone else's - apologies if it is!) - I vaguely remember a thread discussing the blue burst/blue fade business a while back - try searching under those terms....
Whichever, Pearl should be able to pull it off for a MW....

I think you're right... Drum313 was the one.

Now THAT'S what I'd call sapphire! I'd love to see that finish in a fade, or in place of the emerald green pic above.
