Trying my hand at some Major restoring

#1

Post by DanielinAk »

I like a challenge and I took trying some significant de-denting and restoring of this Can. It already cleaned up nicely and I may do some more detailing in cleaning. Already I've worked on this Can for two hours just de-denting to this point.Image

Wow that cleaned up nice. It's such a tough can I would send to Art and let him bring it back to life.

The hard part is bending a crease out right now to make the Can round. But I'm getting a feel for it.

You're doing a great job with the tears from pancake and taco cans. Its hard to keep the tearing to a minimum. The more you repair, the better you get.
