P3laton3 Posted July 14, 2015 Posted July 14, 2015 Love the weathering on the armour!One thing only if I can but your stock should look like more Bakelite than Wooden made Quote
Robster Posted July 15, 2015 Author Posted July 15, 2015 thank you p3laton3 how would i go about changing that? adding darker brown? Quote
P3laton3 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 I would dull a bit with some light layers ( spray it from far ) of black without hiding the brownI did on mine too and after each layer I rubbed away fresh paint with crumpled sheet of paper Quote
Robster Posted July 23, 2015 Author Posted July 23, 2015 Thank you brothers for the kind words and support Quote
Smally Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Hi Rob, Have you finished the mods to the blaster butt which Ruggero pointed out? Once that's done, I'd say youre almost there Quote
Robster Posted July 27, 2015 Author Posted July 27, 2015 I will have it done here in a day or two, pics soon to come Quote
Strider Posted July 28, 2015 Posted July 28, 2015 What I did with mine was to paint it in glossy black and then used a satin clear coat to dull it down which gives it this semi-shiny look which you often find with used bakelite butts. Quote
Robster Posted July 29, 2015 Author Posted July 29, 2015 thank you guys, work in progress....... Quote
