Zorro 902s copper

The etching of my new Zorro 902 has just been finished. Now it is polished to a high gloss (steel balls + diamond dust in the tumbler) and then it is patinated. Any ideas for the finish?

I got titanium insert.

So i got a custom engraved lighter from someone, its a legit trustworthy place and have gotten several lighters from them ... its a custom viking esk design.. i had a proof video sent before payment and it looked great! But when I finally received it its fuzzy and does not look good AT ALL unless in just the right angle of light! And when it gets that good angle it looks STUNNING! So i looked back at the proof video before payment and yeah it was taken at a perfect angle of lighting, my question to you guys is ... what would have fixed this issue? Deeper engraving? Maybe patina will help (skeptical because there is fuzziness) idk just looking for advice is all.. take a look at the pics- u will see the difference in looking straight on and getting a perfect angle of light. Its useless and looks bad unless prefect angle.. thanks for any tips.
