I have the wanted and have seen randys and ktars and I can tell you that the pic is dead on. I dont have photo shop or know how it works but i know for a fact that randy does not use it. Randy is 100 percent honest and has to much to loose to photo shop his pics. You guys should pm him instead of bash a sponser on here. How can you accuse someone in public without proof

I did have a feeling that they messed with the saturation on this one, but if I am correct they cannot alter the photos and claim them as real.

Not trying to bash or accuse anyone of anything and maybe it happened naturally, those sort of artifacts make me wary thats all. If others have seen it and confirm that it is indeed the holmes, then I have to bow to the first hand experience of others.

This is a very special chalice and was collected many years ago long before the chalice craze- maybe RandyO can chime in and tell more about it.

After debuting this chalice to R2R, the frags we had sold out almost immediately and our supply diminished. When more becomes available, we will be sure to post it right here on R2R.

PS- I took the photos posted on the first page and I can assure you that those pink 'blobs' have nothing to do with using a saturation button. We don't believe in doing that, as our customers have already confirmed.

Good enough for me. Sorry for the doubt!

I have a few rainbow chalice and i have to say if you can get the Wanted to color up you will not be disappointed. The key is to get it to color up and most people don't have enough patient to let it grown and develope it's colors. From my experience that if you frag any multi-color chalice it will lose it color from stress and can take up to 6 month to a year for it to even show some colors. I can assure you that the photo has not been saturated and i have seen this chalice with my own naked eyes. Hope that can give that chalice the credit that it deserves. I see a ton of other chalices that are for sale now a day that dont even close to that piece at all.

Maybe you should hook me up for getting lots of traffic to your site :D

What's the key to getting it to color up? I have a piece but it looks nothing like the colorful pics at the beginning of the thread. Is it just time?

Someone needs to delete this junk. ^^^

This is not what this board is all about, take it to one of the crappy forums.

Agreed, quite unnecessary and hopefully a mod will delete.

As a side note, I have seen this one in person (as I live only a few miles away) and no photoshop is necessary for this piece. It's stunning, that's for sure.
