Hi Everyone!!

Been awhile since I posted on here. I've been busy with a cool
restoration project.

This was a big challenge I decided to take on.

These things were in bad shape.

They were both crumbling and falling apart.

After hours of paint removal it was time to patch them up with new concrete and repair all the cracks.

After the repairs were done it was time for some base coat paint.

Then on to the fun part. Time to airbrush some nice detail into them.

Then I shoot a good amount of clear coat on them to seal them and make them last a long time.

I think they turned out pretty good. Thanks for viewing. :)
