I agree with everybody else, truly wonderful pictures, a nice pingasm!


...is it only me that notice what looks like some sort of damage on one of the backbox'es. That is, on the last picture, the bottom backbox top left corner. I could be mistaken, but it looks like wood... or?
Sorry... I'm not normally the one that cares so much for minor things like that, just got surprised that no-one else has seen it... (but it could be a visual thingy also, doesn't need to be anything really there...), especially the ones that are more up to details Wink


Anyway am sure the cab's will turn out truly wonderful, this is a great progress report, thanks a lots Kim/Robert, makes my day!

First off, I have to agree with everyone else. Awesome. I'd also like to add that I was a little skeptical of how well the paint colors would match to make it look like the sticker wasn't a sticker. Amazing job there guys (& gals)!

Delivery at Expo time really works for me too!

As for this...

My guess is that it's cardboard between the heads.

I think they did an awesome job from what we can see.

What was the process?

I've heard of using windex, or a "little" soap, or nothing.

How were these done?

Gene said last year at Expo that he paid an artist to extend the art beyond the original art so there would be some extra room for ease of installation. Some of you will hear that on the DVD you're getting from me...

Was it worth the wait? Twisted Evil
There are quite a few done. I don't have an exact count.
Had the black, bubonic, ecoli, lord take me now plague yesterday
so I'm playing catch-up to my normal catch-up.
They do look good! FYI the purple on the cabinet is not an exact match to the decals it is close though please don't panic. We have had three COLLECTORS look at them and they all were pleased with the way Mine (the guinea pig) machine looked.
That is cardboard in the picture. No damaged wood Laughing
The artwork fits the complete cabinet end to end and top to bottom.
Thanks to the photographer and to Robert for putting them on for us.
I tried and tried and tried................. and sent them to Robert.
We are getting closer with our inventory, if they mando my husband for work Saturday, we (me and hopefully my mom) are going to try to come in at 5:30 when he leaves and get at least 4 hours in before I get to leave for the races.
Well gotta get back to shipping.
Enjoy your decorated wood
