Looking good crash the copper vein is killer

Yeah...she just looks classy...sigh. You were right about the patina...really makes the brass stand out.



She likes to wear different hats...

Since I'm not happy unless I'm tinkering I took cioranes suggestion to heart and painted Mr. Roboto's button. While I was at it I figured I'd polish him up a bit and ended up going a bit overboard. Took me about six hours and a trip to the hardware store but it was worth it. Started with 600 grit sandpaper on a block and was impressed with the results (I had just intended a quick buff) so I did two passes on each surface with 1500 grit (one dry, one wet) and finished with Never Dull.

 

[cioranes]

WOW!
That looks good!

 

[debzcf]

Roxy IS rockin'!

Wow...the brass really is icing on the cake.

As someone with absolutely NO artistic talent, I bow. Who doesn't like shiny things?!

 

[thinkingaboutit]

The bullet drip tip is perfect...and the mirror finish...makes me jealous! For now

Yeah...but if I were to draw him, he'd look like this:

Dayum Crash, I absolutely love what you have done with your Reos. They look awesome!

 

[unsure]

Great buttons. Maybe Rob can make a copper grand then you could do a real cool steampunk REO.

 

[Matthee]

Awesome, like them a lot.

 

[Big Hitter]

Nice work sir, I love it when folks "personalize" their REOs ...........

Kudos big time. Mine seem very boring now.

Egads...I would dive at the chance. Hmmm...He hooked me up with an olive drab Reo but I can't imagine what kind of subliminal machinations would be required to obtain a copper Reo...so I won't even try.

But if he does...I promise to follow the rules:

 

[NicoHolic]

Mr. Roboto rocks!

(checking the sandpaper drawer for 600 and 1500 grit)

I'm a little late and it looks like everyone's already said it all but this was my first impression:
