**EDIT**
So I tried the satin clamp and machine finish balance pipe, and I wasn't too please (sorry I didn't take pics).
However, I decided to polish up the brass windvane and leave the black areas flat... and BINGO! I'm happy with the results. Mostly shiny, but not as shiny as the MR version.
**ORIGINAL**
So I've always liked the Obi-Wan AFBB, but lately haven't been liking it sooooo shiny. So I thought it might be fun to make one with flat/semi-flat black surfaces, and less shiny neck.
The frag body & booster are black oxide. No paint.
The windvane is brass-black(ed)
The only paint is on the 16-hone emitter section.
I'm not sure about the results. I may end up making the frag body & booster flat black for a sharper contrast. What do you think?
