I totally agree top notch work Rob !!

 

[rob ferreira]

Hey guys. Thanks for the wonderful feedback, glad you like how it's coming along.

Here are a few pics with some of the ash and dust weathering added. Still more dusting to do.

Please excuse the poor pics, my camera is on it's last leg and I have a focusing issue with it.

ROB,

Poor pix or not. These look Great !

Dude !

In all honesty. You blow MIG & Adam Wilder( and all th other Europeans)off the Planet with your Rust technique ! I'm 100% serious & not afraid to say it. Yours is THE MOST Realistic I've ever seen. I'm also in the Construction Indusry & have seen 1st hand Steel in various stages of Rust & aged rust.

I really hope you are able to come to AMPS in Fredericksburg in April & Maybe We can get you a seminar !? regardless I wanna see this stuff in person !!

You ROCK Brother & are an Innovator !!!

I'm mean that in all sincerity !! It's been a pleasure to watch this Kit come together !!

WOW Erik that is one heck of a compliment, I thank you very much bro.

I would love to go to the AMPS Int. show in April, BUT don't really think I can attend :S :S . If my situation changes long enough in advance I will let you know. I have spoken with Rick and if I do make it, I'll do a demo on the rusting in relation to MIG Production. Clock's ticking.

Next update should be on the turret painting, soon I hope.

If Rob was going, I'd be offering to split the cost with him but it looks bleak for me as well.

I just sold some recording gear and one of my Les Paul guitars on Ebay to pay some bills and help with my Christmas shopping. I've played that thing for over twenty years and it broke my heart but unless I get lucky I'll still be living paycheck to paycheck come the time for the show.

Anyway, this is looking quite cool brother, although I've come to expect nothing less than outstanding stuff from you so... I hope you've been filming this stuff. I see your channel slowly gaining subscribers and views and such, it takes a while but it will come in time.

Anxious for the next update.

 

[rob ferreira]

Ken if I could I would, but for me it's day by day livin. Would be great to meet some of the guys from here and put faces to names.

Dude the video thing is not working out too good. My cameras are both acting up. the main one has a mind of it's own lately. It doesn't seem to want to focus right, only the center will focus and it zooms in and out on it's own. :hmmm :hmmm :S

That first round is going to be expensive for me if all these beer drinkers show up...

Erik is right though Rob. Outstanding stuff!

 

[jknaus]

Bit of gun tape, turtle wax and elbow grease and that'll buff out.

[rob ferreira]

Hey Rob , Ken , if you guys can make it to South Jersey you can park here and you can jump in my pickemup truck and I'll drive us down to F-burg ................. start saving , we start planning now and maybe we can swing it ?

 

[Ken Abrams]

Dude, way cool offer...

you're not gonna make us ride in the back are ya?

:laugh:

Seriously though, I'm going to keep that in mind, it just might make it doable.

 

[rob ferreira]

Mike thanks dude, glad you it.

:hmmm :hmmm riding in the back of a pick up !!! Dude that IS one hell of an offer. Right now it's a no go, BUT that could change.
The one other problem is that my wife has her birthday on the 7th of April

We can still touch base as it nears.

Brandy new Dodge Ram , 1500 , 6 seater , .......... I figure April is long enough away to try and make this work and figure out the logistics , never been to Fredriksberg [ sp? ] , ....... if not , ......... oh well , there will be other shows and opportunities .

Drive to the Jersey shore , park your wheels here and we take off from here , ......... road trip !!!
To make it work [ wife ] , I may have to take my 13 yr old son , ........... but he's cool .

 

[Iron Mike]

Dang, if you guys are coming down, I'll plan to take the time off too. I'm sure Chris can squeeze it into his calender, now if we can just get Joey..... Bob, you'd better start saving your pennies, that first round is gonna be a LULU!!

 

[Cheyenne]

Nah Mike I talk a big beer game , .......... but I'm gettin older an I'd rather hang out with you guys than pass out ,... :laugh: :laugh:

Oh yeah , ......... bring tunes !!!

 

[Cheyenne]

Anthony's a Jersey boy , ........... Raider fan , you out there ?

Feel like going to Fredriksberg ?

 

[Cheyenne]

Maybe we can also talk the Pup into this , ................ ?
