Thou wilt shew me the path of life:
in thy presence is fulness of joy;
at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Really nice color combo and fantastic workmanship, but I'm thinking more of a decorator piece.

wink I like it. I have always felt that it is up to the guy paying the bill to be happy. That is why you see pumps "bone stock" original, Untouched with Patina look, or you have Fantasy Globes on multi-colored pumps. To each his own, that's what makes the World go 'round!

A very nice restoration. If you're the restorer; you just do what the customer wants. It's their money and I always say; the customer is always right. Again, job well done!

I'm not usually fond of exotic or odd theme choices... but the decal/globe/paint combination came out really good... like that one, good job!

That is me when I choose colors for my restored toys even though the restoration fella disagrees with me at the beginning. Later, when done, he always says: "man, I like your color combination".

Killer restoration work + stunning paint job, Blair!
