So I got some pics from Cap'n Neo of the Paragon PF I sent him (the PF I got from Mechslave).

Long story short, he offered to do the touchups and clear the PF for an extremely generous discounted price due to an unfortunate deal I went through awhile back that didn't even involve him! The touchups were in areas with extremely high detail (bare wood around the usual wear areas around the numbers on the wings) as well as other areas on the PF.

The touchups were for the visible areas that would be seen once the pf is populated (not for under every post or screw.)

Anyways he just sent some pics in which he is not even finished yet but I think his work on them is nothing short of AMAZING!

Check out these before and after pics...F'In Awesome! Can't wait to get this in, populated, and back in the game!!!

paragon is one of the best as far as artwork goes. And it's an awesome game. I'm not done with this field yet. It's going to be a level 2 restoration. I recently changed my restoration levels, from 5 different to 3 different. So a level 2 now, used to be called level 3. The system seemed to be too complicated and to many gray areas with levels 2 and 4, so I just eliminated them. So now it's more basic with just, clearcoat and black lines, to visible areas, to hidden and visible. Makes things less complicated.
