“Sometimes even Tony Stark needs a little extra punch.” So Tom created this Stark Industries Iron Man shotgun, done in red and gold tones. The shotgun wears the familiar Iron Man palette, with Stark Industries branding. It’s a fun, bold design that any Marvel fan will spot right away. Tom says the shop absolutely loves…
“These twins came out just beautiful,” Tom wrote. An AR-15 and a pistol finished to match in Burnt Bronze and black. Burnt Bronze brings a warm, metallic tone, while black adds contrast and keeps things tactical. Using the same color scheme across both guns makes them look like a true matched set. Matching a rifle…
“Yes, we even do custom sunglasses.” These Oakleys were in need of a custom design, and Tom did them in a Burnt Bronze and black Harley-Davidson theme. The frames carry a tribal-style design with bronze and black, matching the Harley look riders love. Sunglasses are small and curved, so detail work has to be precise….
A full Marine theme Glock with “Semper Fi” on the slide and the shop’s own custom-designed skull hand on the grip. Tom noted that many people copy the skull hand grips, “but remember we were the first.” The Marine motto on the slide honors service. The skull hand was designed in-house, and Tom notes many…
“A two tone Glock 43 that makes heads turn at the range.” Tom said this one isn’t wild, just plain classy. It’s a pistol that looks expensive without trying too hard. It combines Burnt Bronze and Blue Titanium, finished with a high-polish barrel. Blue Titanium brings a cool steel tone, Burnt Bronze adds warmth, and…
This 1911 really needed some TLC. The owner had used a different Cerakote applicator who “totally screwed things up,” and brought it straight to Tom. Tom fixed it, and it now has a silver slide and wood grips. The previous coating had been applied poorly, and fixing it meant stripping everything back to bare metal…
A custom Kimber 1911 done in Burnt Bronze and Cobalt, including Burnt Bronze backfill in the engraving. Cobalt is a deep, dark blue that reads almost black indoors and shows its color in sunlight. Paired with warm bronze, it creates a rich two-tone with plenty of contrast but nothing flashy. The backfill is the finishing…
Two pistols, one look: these both received a beautiful coat of Burnt Bronze and Graphite Black Cerakote. Graphite Black is a deep charcoal that grounds it, so the bronze becomes the accent rather than the whole story. Both guns were done together to keep the colors consistent. That means the bronze on one matches the…
“Yes, we love applying Burnt Bronze Cerakote,” Tom wrote. “It just looks so good on pretty much everything.” This AR pistol proves the point. The receiver and main components wear the warm bronze, while the black parts provide contrast. On a compact AR pistol, where the receiver makes up most of the visible surface, the…
“Just plain old Burnt Bronze and Graphite Black Cerakote on this beautiful AR15.” Sometimes a simple two-tone is all a rifle needs. The bronze adds warmth and metallic depth, while Graphite Black provides contrast. On an AR, the split between receivers and furniture creates natural lines for the colors. The bronze was laid on the…
