Heh, Heh. Told you guys they'd look amazing like that
I know that ppl don't seem to dig the whole topical thing anymore. Even though it's accurate in a lot of cases, I won't even try to debate it. BUT,
the fact is in this case, it affords the end user a virtually worry free set of knees. With a correct cast base color, light misting of weathering and silver / cream detail will take a LONG time to ever wear off because of the flex of the rubber, as opposed to a fully multi layered paint up (which will inevitably fall off after a wearing or two if you're lucky, even with a latex base.)
The whole "FP" theory from years ago was, while other's are repainting their knees weekly from the flex of the rubber, owners of these knees would have that time free for other things much more fun Never getting around to it for one reason or another was unfortunate - but Mike has shown that it is completely reasonable, and quite remarkable. Thank you brother for all your hard work
Christian (MoW) was the only maker that attempted this at some point last year I believe. I'm not exactly sure why he stopped making them. But with a refined process this could be a new standard for "trooping" applications.
Great Job !
