Today I’ve restored the Quadra700 Apple badge. I couldn't make myself feel that the airbrush I used for the first time in a while wasn't working well, but I had no choice but to start repairing the airbrush.

It was very difficult to adjust the 6 colors, I thought that purple is a color that can only be produced with dye-based paints.
And the masking of the apple leave was a little wider. *The width of the green is also a little wide


…However, I've already spent 3 hours total doing this, so I thought I should be satisfied here.

That's why Michael M Scott first CEO of Apple Computer said "the most expensive bloody logo ever designed" 🙂

Great work! I have an SE/30 badge in far worse condition that I have been meaning to restore. I was thinking about trying pens with paint in them, but I like how you were able to adjust the colors with an airbrush. It's not easy to get this right, but your logo looks convincing to me.

Thank you, it was so good that I couldn't tell which one was the original when I was 1m away. However, considering the time it took, I wonder if some company should reproduce this as a product.

This is my third challenge today. When I went to bed yesterday, I thought about it many times and decided to do it again.
I think this time it's perfect, including the colors….
