Painted M249 Para

ex · March 1st, 2006, 12:05

Hey Guys,
Just thought I would share some pics of my CA 249 para I just painted. The only mods I did was re-direct the wiring to the ammo box so I could place a larger 9.6V 3300 Mah battery in it. Im debating if I should add some narrow dark brown around the edges with my airbrush..any thoughts?
Cheers,
Ex

Looks great! I'd go for adding a bit of brown to it as well, edging would be cool (try a small section first and see, if it sucks, paint over it). Assume my MP5 thing will look similar?

Sweetness! Ya, smaller bands would be better on a smaller gun. Looking at it, I think putting dark lines between each shade of colour might make it more distinct looking. Anyways, think about it with both cadpat and multicam, and go from there to make it work well with both. I guess my M24 as an example, I made it woodland of sorts, using the cedar leaves as stencils and spray bombs, ended up with a pattern that works great with cadpat (guess cedar leaves add a digital style pattern to it, and the colours chosen) AND woodland, if that's possible.

Looks very nice indeed. Good job pal.

Nice gun man. Pantjob is looking good. I agree with droc. Add a little brown and your in business. Xepharo is that an HK14 in your signature?

Hey Stalker.
Naw man..I decided to just leave it as is for now and see how effective it is before adding the brown. I think it will be fine the way it is.
Cheers,
Ex
