That's pretty cool. I like it. If you bought that, do they have other color plates too?

Did it myself with some color gels and diffuser paper from the music shop.

If you want one too.. then have fun making it yourself, I ain't doing it again anytime soon! It's VERY time consuming to say the least. :crazy: Maybe I'll get the nerve up again soon and try some different color combos.

That is cool but I think the white would be too much for my eyes after a while
