My Manners T4 was looking a little plain just OD

So I broke out my airbrush and Duracoat!

What do you think?

4 different colors, shading from light to dark with these plastic stencils in random areas.

Where did you get the stencils or did you make them, and what were the 4 colors to be exact.

Very nice.

Stencils I got here. I used the "mini" size http://www.tcpglobal.com/kustomshop/kspham6.aspx

Colors were:

Multi Light Green #112
Multi Medium Green #117
Multi Dark Green #114
Matte Black #4

I also use Duracoat's Flattening Agent at 10% of mixture. Don't know if it changes the colors any, but it sure knocks down on the sheen and glare.

That's a nice looking rifle. The skulls give it a mean bitchin look. What do you have wrapped around the scope? Does it serve a purpose?
 
Re: My Manners T4 was looking a little plain just OD

That looks amazing! If I ever do this, I'm def. going to practice on something not so valuable though!

Looks damn good. I just painted my T5 with a Flectarn like pattern.
 
Re: My Manners T4 was looking a little plain just OD

I can dig it. Did you use any of the original OD underneath or completely spray over it??

I'm sure there are a few spots that are still factory OD. I just scuffed up the factory finish and wiped it clean and went to spraying. Duracoat's Multi Dark Green is dang close to Manners factory OD color though.
 
Re: My Manners T4 was looking a little plain just OD

Pretty cool pattern you got there.

What's all that rope wrapped around your scope for?

I have seen some guys wrap some cord around their scopes but not to the extent that you have.
 
Re: My Manners T4 was looking a little plain just OD

It's 550 cord. No real reason to have it on there but it's come in handy fixing deer blinds and whatnot.
 
Re: My Manners T4 was looking a little plain just OD

damn, that is awesome, I have got to learn how to do it, I have 3 Manners T4 and they became dull all of a sudden
Well done.
 
Re: My Manners T4 was looking a little plain just OD

Very nice work.
