Yeah, you succeeded and like Ed says, it's immense! How did you use washing up liquid to get the paint like that?
Oh aye, and I came here to contribute pics too...

I didn't realise that what I was buying were RPK mags, they were advertised as AK74 (long) and the company has shut down. Still, I paid a pittance for 2 and they sent me 3, so I'm OK with it. 140rnd midcaps - I can't decide whether the incongruity of sticking large mags on a little AK is sub-zero or just wrong.
I'm wondering what to do with the look of them also, because the 'bakelite look' plastic is horrible IMO. The real bakelite mags get bleached by sunlight, but I can't imagine this plastic would. Maybe there's something I can stain them with though. Or just Krylon them black?
