Looks really good. I think if you work more on the paint schem it can make the gun look even more realistic. I use a "aluminum" type spray paint when I paint valve covers, alternator covers and etc for my car. It is cheep and looks amazing when finished. I think it would look great on the barrels of the gun. I can even post pics if your interested.
The one in the pic was painted the way it was *specifically* at the request of the person I made it for, for use as a stage prop. all the weaps from this project were painted matte black, so they appeared to be 3-D silhouetts. Quote:
It looks really,really good. Not to be rude at all, beacause truly I respect art and creativity, but I keep looking at it thinking it is missing something. . And it dawned on me, ou need some kind of amo feed. A bullet chain or somesuch. Maybe covers or pins something, for some depth of character. Maybe just me. Still awesome job!!
That kinda detail wasnt needed by the gun's owner, for the use it was made for. On mine, (half done, see right above your quote in this post) the detail level will be much higher, as well as the paint scheme will be much more closer to the real thing. I plan on having a slot for the ammo feed, as I plan on doing a matching backpack, with a belt of dummy ammo going to the weapon, eventually. Pics of me with it upcoming...
