Black 35RC

A quick lick of Hammerite and some Tippex and my silver Olympus 35RC becomes black. Looks good huh? Olympus should have made them all like this! See the before shot here (link)

OK, OK, it's Photoshop trickery, but you didn't really think I was going to attack it with Hammerite and a worn out half inch brush did you???


other sizes: small medium original auto

It looks soooooo much better in black. I'd chance it, carefully mask everything I could (cut precise rectangles around name and model #), and spray on a couple very, very light coats of flat black.

LOL - even with smooth Hammerite I thought it was a little too smooth!! How different in black it looks!

It looks really, really good in black. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be painting mine as my painting skills are terrible (as are my Photoshop skills!)

I wonder if Olympus ever thought of doing a brightly coloured one, rather akin to those mobile phone covers?

I do like it better in black. Well worth your work. Fun comparison.
