Thanks so much dewshine. I love and need this for some of my colonial kitchens. This set is truly awesome!

Walnut and perhaps a set in a wood grain between RGiles along with the ebony and a white set will be perfect. :D

Okay...a medium toned wood, walunt, ebony, white (all)..and white and orange...I have a nice darker toned wood with agua marble counters finished. I hadn't even thought of white...but hey I'll give it a go. I think I have a nice "golden Taverine" texture that might be just the thing for that orange and white set. One question? how "orange" do you want it?
Here's my second recolor:
It goes very nicely with the cheapest no-back barstool if you pick the blue cushion. Oh and it is darker than RGiles' dark wood by many shades.

the clear glass comes with RGiles' original package. this set is very easy to recolor... (man did I just say that?!?, I think I jinked myself...)

Anyhow here is my 3rd recolor. White and Orange with a Golden Taverine countertop. Doors for the upper cabinet include orange stained wood and a taverine inlay. There's a cute little heart on the open cabinet. It took me a bit to get the counter the way I liked it.

Gosh, *blushes* I'm just a beginner. But you did inspire me to try doing new woodgrains for this set. I attempted ebony...I'm not sure how well I did. I'll let the downloaders decide I guess. Yep, recolor #4...really I did retexture these. look for yourself!
I also did a neutral brushed metal countertop and dark handles.

Bringing you two more. One is my attempt at a medium tone wood. well, it is a shade or two lighter than GRiles dark. but not by much. It has capper handles and a darker kicktrim. This is file #5.

My second offer today is based on Pink Ivory wood. this color is not retouched. the graphics are exactly as pictured. If anyone would like copies of the original images I'll gladly attach them. This is a rare african wood and likely will never be used in a real kitchen, but hey I'm happy how it turned out. this is file #6

Um...Silver toned? That might look good with the purple heart wood I'm doing next...I was just wondering what color to do the countertops. Thanks ~Po~.

So is this okay?

Is it silver enough? I think it looks very sharp myself. I hope it's what you were thinking of. If not let me know and I'll change the reflection to a silver also. The undercolor is bluish, but the default reflection has a slightly warm tone. if you would like the silver shine I'll make an additional counter that has that.

here is recolor 7. this is based on "purple heart" wood. As I made it to go with the silver counters the handles are silver too.

I followed the link expecting to find one, maybe two recolors-- not this many! Very nice, and thank you.

I have to also say I'm excited to see purple heart. This tree grows naturally in Bolivia (where I am "half" from) and not too many people know about it. It is sometimes also called 'nazareno," or "nazarene," because of the purple color.

furtivestar, it's great to know that info. I found the images on the web and was blown away. The purple heart wood is so pretty. Amazing that it oxidizes to that color. I'm tempted to search some more for additional rare woods for this kitchen. I already have a collection of Padouk samples I want to use.
Katt1367, thank you.
It means a lot to me that folks like the colors. Shall I make more or do we have enough?
