Souske Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Haha, thanks. Actually, the bulk of it took about 20 or so minutes (with drying). The rest was just painting the other parts that would go on later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Laxplayer19x93 Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 You use any specific guide, or are you just that godly? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 i assume he has a guide... i believe it begins with: step 1: be souske END -Joe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Souske Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Haha, thanks guys. I don't really follow any guide/patterns...I mostly work off of from my numerous experiences of painting. I guess I don't really think too much of it, I just go for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thorbard Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 When I first posted pictures of this rifle I was told the paint looked too clean and neat. That was because it was newly painted. Here it is about a month later: I'm tempted to add another colour or two to it at the moment. One that I'm thinking of is a grey-green. The other would be a darker green, probably about the same tone as the brown. Except, well, green. But not sure. I quite like it as it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jonesy Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Somebody gave my sister a used A&K S-System, (yes, just gave it to her at a game..They bought it on the cheap, and didn't like the styling...and some guys are just stupid enough to give girls anything.) and I decided I'd see what might come of it with a twenty minute rattle can job. I used Krylon, so I imagine I should slap a clear coat on, but I haven't really the time or interest. But it's definitely an improvement over the glossy plastic A&K use..

Wege Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Cheers, They are painted by a team mate of mine, and he definantly has some skills in painting rifles. I will try and get some better pictures for you guys and post them up. Getting more paint mileage, D? Here is one of em in a natural field. I really love how the paint has destroyed the outlines... better than souske's easily, IMO. there is a better picyure or two out there somewhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Number5 Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Kerbdog, that M249 looks amazing! you us any particular patern or just go free flow!? Also, a touch off topic but what mag box/pouch is that on the M249? 5. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kerbdog Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Thanks for the kind comments guys. I started with a base of Khaki and some patches of dark brown, then i grabbed a bunch of small twigs and stenciled over the entire gun with Olive drab. The black stripes were added randomly to break it up and anyone who says black doesnt appear in nature hasn't heard of shadows/shade. The final coat was a very light dusting of Olive drab from about two and a half feet over the entire gun to dull all the colors down and soften any hard edges. Number5, The box mag is a classic army 1200 round "nutsack" in US woodland. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scratch Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 (edited) My currently dessie bastardised HK51 (with internals out ready for another bit of paint). Apologies for the overexposed phone cam pic. I have some OD krylon incoming - looking to use it in moderation to darken things down a little and make it sensible to use in the woods. Any suggestions on how to keep it tasteful? EDIT: Marginally less over-exposed pic Edited July 28, 2008 by scratch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
No Trace 13 Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Right here are some picture of my latest creation, pretty much complete I'm just waiting for the sniper stock to arrive and it will be done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CapaciousZepher Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 Cool, I'm looking forward to seeing the completed rifle. I like the paintjob and color selection except perhaps for the light tan, looks a bit pale to me. However that might be a trick 'o the camera. Cheers! - CapaciousZepher Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scratch Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 It is quite light, I usually play in a place where that matches the rocks quite well, but I'm moving to woods. It's krylon sand dune and med brown atm. Having seen No Trace's work, I'm gonna add some normal brown as well! I'll probably try a homage to that thing with a lil OD in the mix!

CapaciousZepher Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 There are some guns that should never be painted, unfortunately the MP7 is one of them. Cheers! - CapaciousZepher Quote Link to post Share on other sites
