Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
ZEUS
Sk Customs is proud to introduce "Zeus," the second creation in the Gods of Olympus Engraver Series collection. This guaranteed collector’s item will be a limited production run of 200. Based on the well-known Smith & Wesson Full Size 1911 E-Series (45 ACP), this custom creation was conceived to pay homage to Zeus, the Greek God of the Sky, Ruler, Protector, and Father of all Gods and Humans. Zeus was considered the King of Mount Olympus where he ruled the Olympian World.
To Immortalize some of Zeus's absolute powers the slide, frame and grips feature cloud engraved scroll to represent his rule of the sky and weather. Picturesque artwork on the sides of the slide intensifies visual depictions of Zeus directing Lighting, Thunder, Rain and Strong Winds with his Thunderbolts as a mighty force of punishment. Zeus is portrayed in 24 KT Gold-plating with his companion Eagle (Aetos Dios) soaring steadfast selectively Copper-Plated. Zeus was known to have transformed into a Bull which is reflective on the rear serration. Zeus’s primary form of protection was his Aegis, a shield which displayed the head of Gorgon (sister of Medusa) which made a forbidding roar during battled.
Sk Customs is proud to introduce "Poseidon," the first creation in the all-new Gods of Olympus engraver series. This guaranteed collector’s item will be a limited production run of 200 and was designed in close collaboration with Master Engraver Melissa McMinn, a Firearms Engravers Guild of America (FEGA) award winner. Based on the well-known Smith & Wesson Full Size 1911 E-Series (45 ACP), this custom creation was conceived to pay homage to Poseidon, the Greek God of the Sea, Earthquakes, and Horses. He was considered one of the most bad-tempered Olympian Gods and known for his violent anger.

Zeus’s primary form of protection was his Aegis, a shield which displayed the head of Gorgon (sister of Medusa) which made a forbidding roar during battled.
The slide has a proprietary conversion coating that results ina highly reflective sky-blue background in the engraved areas behind the selectively gold and copper-plated artwork. The frame flats and slide have been polished to a satin finish. To tie the whole design together, the filled Greek key meander and grip art adorn the Pearl grips and select hardware has been plated in 24kt Gold and Nickel creating a stunning overall look. Rounding out this creation is the addition of a new Novak front sights with a strikingly authentic center set Yellow Diamond further embodying grandeur of Zeus and the power of his Thunderbolt.
Each collector of Zeus in the Gods of Olympus Engravers Series, will receive a special issued commemorative 1-oz high relief silver coin that features the observe marks of the Bank of Greece in Athens, the year of production and a profile of the Goddess Athena on one side.

POSEIDON
Sk Customs is proud to introduce "Poseidon," the first creation in the all-new Gods of Olympus engraver series. This guaranteed collector’s item will be a limited production run of 200 and was designed in close collaboration with Master Engraver Melissa McMinn, a Firearms Engravers Guild of America (FEGA) award winner.

He was considered one of the most bad-tempered Olympian Gods and known for his violent anger.
To immortalize some of Poseidon's characteristics the slide, frame and grips feature spiral scroll to represent high seas and rouge waves, while the fore and AFT serrations on the slide represent fish like scales. Stunning artwork on the sides of the slide adds visual depictions of Poseidon with the right side portraying a 24 KT Gold-plated Poseidon riding on Hippokampoi (fish-like horses) and thunderbolts filling the sky above them while the left side prominently features Poseidon’s infamous Trident plated in 24 KT Gold which legend says he used to control the sea and land. The most eye-catching feature of the slide is a proprietary conversion coating that results in a highly reflective Aqua Marine background in the engraved areas behind the selectively gold-plated artwork, which seems to shimmer off the overall stainless satin finish.
