nice original colors!

[FOX_111]

Strange, but in a way, I like it.
I'd use these colors as base for a more standard paintjob.

Never seen a paint job quite like it

Echo1 M28
max range:300 feet
470fps w/ .25s

Mine has a custom extended rail, Harris bipod(included) Leopold M1 scope, and LaRue & Tactical SPR scope mount. I used british sniper tape since its removes the shine element that comes from regular paintjobs.

after paintjob:


The only time in written history Chuck Norris was successfully subdued:

My KJW 1911 - gave it a realistic look.
Some mags I painted - I love customization.

[Wantabe_Warrior]

Caspian, those painted mags are sooo cool man.

[Caspian]

Thanks, I do custom decals for guns and mags.

[Six By Ten]

A-TACs work in progress, gearbox is currently getting fall maintenence and rewired to Dean. She's been through about 30-40 games in the past year without a single failure. I'll get a Hi-Res pic once that's done.

All controls (mag release, selector etc.) are being left black, as are the buffer tube, grip, pad on the end of the stock, scope controls (zoom and illumination), scope rings and the HK logo on the suppressor.

The internals of the gun are a stock KWA 2nd gen gearbox with a 455 mm prometheus 6.03 and shoots a crisp 396-403 fps with .20's.

Externally is a King Arms ModStock, Unknown JPRifles front end (Madbull I think, but it was just an extra part lying around so don't know for sure), HK trademarked suppressor. The scope is a Tasco 3-9x by 50. Not shown is RockShot 6-9 inch bipod.




Edit, for anyone interested in the process:

Base Coat: Grey Primer

Second Coat: Marsh Grass Camo Paint

Third Coat: Dusting of Tan Krylon

Fourth Coat: Brown Krylon, sponged onto about 50% of surface

Fifth Coat: Various mixes of Greens (Emerald green and OD), Tans (Tan and Marsh Grass) and Brown (Mud Brown and Brown) in subdued tones

Sixth Coat: Very light dusting Tan Krylon

At this point the gun had a lot of the mid tones found in A-TACs but enough variety to break up the shape

Seventh Coat: Tan Krylon sponged carefully into areas I felt needed "highlights"

Eighth Coat: Brown Krylon sponged carefull into areas I felt needed "shadows"

Ninth Coat: 50/50 mix of Brown and Tan Krylon sponged carefully onto areas that had "hard lines" to soften the profile without comprimising the contrast of lights and darks

Six by Ten - excellent work; very well matched. That is impressive indeed.

So your techinque for that effect is sponging? How do you do that exactly; spray a sponge with paint then apply by dabbing the sponge to the area?

I usually have done what you did with the ninth coat with a stencil or a fist-full of sticks to diffuse the paint on the hard lines - got to try a sponge next time.

[FOX_111]

Impressive work indeed.
Take it outside with a good camera, we want to have a better look.
