Gun picture thread

My first attempt at spraying.

Not an expansive gun but my first one so I can practise on it and see how things go.

Trying a gearbox upgrade next even though I've only had it a week!! ;)

No pictures loading for me

 
Cheers.

Yea did it myself. If I was to do it again I'd have done smaller squares but as I said, practice makes perfect.

 
Yeah, it looks seriously professional. I'd say the squares are about right. Great job for a 1st go!

 
Cheers for the comments. Could anyone pm me a link to basic gearbox upgrades for a v2 please?

How did you do the squares because im thinkingbof doing this to my gun with olive,woodland and khaki krylon

 
I printed out my pattern, covered baking paper in masking tape both sides,

put the pattern on the coved paper and cut all the shapes out with a knife.

The reason for doing it on baking paper is so you can peel the shapes off easy

Put them on the gun once the first colour is sprayed and keep doing that with every coat.

 
Looks good. I would advise next time having a 4th colour. It also helps to use the "female" parts of the stencil to add extra depth.

 
I did use the female stencils a little bit but perhaps should have done a bit more.

4th colour would deffinetly be a good shout.

I think the P90 has it by a whisker, but between that and the FAMAS it's bloody difficult to say what is the ugliest, most awkward looking gun around (and I'm including the Chinese Type 97 in that odious selection).

 
You've got a point, Nutster! But at least the XM8 has the H&K G36 controls/layout so it may well look like a cross between low budget sci-fi and a super soaker, but I can't see it as worse than a FAMAS or the Baelzebub's dog humping P90...

 
^^ Ugg boot on roids :P :)

@Ed: yeah, speaking of low budget sci-fi lol! I had forgotten about that hideous monstrosity. TBH I could have done without being reminded. That said, it has got an extendible stock so it's better than a P90!
