Brad, I applaud your efforts and I think you are getting close.

Since you asked, and I would not have said anything unless you asked, the frames you have done that I looked at, Jay Shachter's, the color was too "heavy". It was like a paint coating, whereas real Parker case colors were thin, even when new, and like they are translucent. If you can get a thinner straw and light blue, translucent, I think you are there.

Here are a couple high condition, original guns. The hammerless one is mine, the hammer one belongs to a friend. The photos were taken outside same day, same camera, same conditions and with liberal spray of Puglisi perfume.

Best regards.
