Looks great! After you mentioned the cabinet redesign, I looked up the original on IPDB.

I've gotta say, I like what you've done. Would love to see more of your work, and it sounded like you were hinting at some tutorials(?). ...which would be great.

Just out of curiosity, did you sand down the cabinet to get ride of the paint, or did you use a product to scrape the paint away?

Quoted from davideokills:

Cleaning off shitty paint and fixing cabs is not the part I like.

Ha-ha! Funny. I'm more of an art-guy, so this re-painting thing actually sound kind of interesting.

Quoted from davideokills:

For Cover Girl I sanded the cab for Scuba I used the orange paint remover and then sanded. Both methods are time consuming and suck.

Does either method...suuuuck less? ...or yield different/better results? Also curious about what you're using for paint and application. Also, are you clear-coating when complete?

Quoted from davideokills:

we adjusted the color schemes to fit the game or to account for some fading

Sounds reasonable.

Finally, that scuba stencil looked so great, I thought it was stock. Again, you guys did a great job with your alternate version. Here's the stock cab for anyone interested:

Looking forward to more!
