I just love when i forget about acros for a while and they end up blossoming into something cool! These days it seems that monochromatic acros have fallen to the wayside in favor of blissful multicolored wonders. I say nonsense! From a few feet away sometimes it's the stark solid colored sticks that really stand out among the forest of rainbows! Am i laying it on a little thick? indeed i am. But with good purpose. I get asked about purple probably more than any other color. It seems that when it comes to acros a good solid deep purple is not so easy to come by. Sure there's plenty of purple out there but not all purple.
Enter The Purple Meister. (pun intended)
This came from a little mini colony taken off of a wild aussie piece about a year or two ago. Like a lot of mediocre stuff I tucked it off to the side and all but forgot about it. I did visit it a while back and even got a few shots of it but it was not all that impressive yet and tucked away again it went. I could see the potential though. There was a lot of purple going on in this one but he wasn't ready yet.
Then recently a customer of mine asked me about purple and if I had anything interesting. I mentioned this one and said I'd get a pic if i could. To my delight the thing just looked great. I was totally blown away in fact. Not going to cut this one up like crazy but I'll frag a branch or two for sure.
An all purple acro!
