Wow, that's really cool. I love the play and look of FG, and I must confess I kind of liked it with the gloss, it was really interesting and somehow weirdly appropriate - but simply outstanding once sanded. I re-did mine, but it pales in comparison to the work you have done!

Given your other restorations, I can't wait to see what you end up with.

This is just beyond cool. I only wish I had the talent, tools, and imagination to pull off something like this. Just splendid.

Touchups to the artwork is complete on the flash side. Forgot to take a picture after the striping was complete. [quoted image]

Wow...
Amazing work. I'd love to see what you would do with a Fathom.

Thanks!
I can’t imagine ever doing one because Mike did the best version I have ever seen. Check it out if you haven’t already.

That's just crazy excellent. As much as I love the cabinet art and what the world normally sees, the blue and chrome under the playfield is just ... well, on a higher plane.

I'm not worthy...

I am excited to say that my games are out of storage and in their new home. Here are some long awaited final pictures of this project.

Looks absolutely fantastic. Love this game, it is worthy of your efforts.
