My Paragon replacement was way better than the one I had in it condition wise but colour wise it was chalk and cheese. Have a CPR fathom backglass. It is disappointing. Would like to to see the one that Shay made . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinoffski Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 Unfortunately this has been on the back burner as I needed some extra stencils. Jeff from pinball pimp helped me out with what I needed. The price of Postage was a bomb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price of Postage was a bomb I used pinball pimp stencils on the Flash Gordon and they were a pleasure to use especially the registration of the next stencil to use. Since you’ve got the colours pretty well sorted Dave I reckon you’ll be on the homeward leg now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Autosteve Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Might of cost a bomb postage but that machine's paint looks amasing. Just wondering, do you guys put a clear coat over the finished layers to come up like that or is that the layers of paint as they go on?. Either way I'm impressed. That looks sweeet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinoffski Posted April 16, 2022 Author Share Posted April 16, 2022 As most restore pinball threads just show the positive posts .. It looks easy to do it. Doing a full restore is way more harder than I thought. For me I will shear the bad .. I messed up the stencils with a miss alignment. Have another part set of stencils . So if I get time over the Easter break I will make the correction to the artwork. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only difference I thought was depth downwards for games that did have an upper level like Flash Gordon or ones that had extra machinery on top like Xenons tube.
