I was able to give the MB a few light passes with a steel wool to give it some “interest”. It is very slight weathering that gives it more of an aged look rather than beat up. Although it is black, the color will change depending on the light.
Once that was done I reassembled the MB and fit the shell back on to see how it looks, the light was just right so I took it outside for some pictures
I have been working with another maker to get a really cool cover for the subwoofer, it’s killing me to keep it a surprise. I should have a prototype to test fit soon. It has reached a point where I can start wiring everything up… perhaps this weekend.
