Title: Old Glory Boost: Rosie the Riveter
Post by: Roctopus on October 07, 2011, 07:01:16 AM
Here is a boost pedal I built for my sister-in-law. She loves WWII art so I slapped Rosie the Riveter on a red, white, and blue enclosure and scuffed the heck out of it. Enjoy :)

Roctopus!

Looks great! Beating that thing up first was the right idea, I'd say the look it needs.  :)

It's the Slambox (Zvex SHO) clone :)

Yeah! I was going for a faded flag, rustic/vintage look. It ended with about 8 layers of clear coat but it was worth it :)

It looks super cool man. I have always dug that picture.

What did you use for clear coat? and did you sand between coats?

Thanks! I used Rustoleum Clear Coat spray paint. I didn't sand between though.
