Painted Rounds
 

Well, I got kinda bored with the same old G36 low caps, so I decided to put the old airbrush to use.

Stock "rounds" on the left, painted on the right. Painting is "supposed" to look like polycarbonate tipped, teflon coated, aluminum cased ammo.

Well, one down, 18 more to go. Might throw some red tipped ones in, you know, for color.

Edit - links kinda fixed.

Forgot to post the pictures?

Links dont work.

I get this "You don't have permission to access /51/6/44/69/515964469YLeqjm_ph.jpg on this server.".

Your links/pics arent working. :( I wanted to see this!!

Now THAT looks spiffy inside the mags!

EDIT: Use IE if you can't see the images

Woah! those look pretty sweet! Nice work! Might have to bust out the airbrush and do something similar to mine!

Fuckin sweet man!

-_-
 

that looks nice man, good job.

Good job! looks great

IE sucks... Bullets look good though!

wow shit they look frikin sweet

Nice!!
Look killer!

Thats awesome, good idea.

Looks Good!!!

I look forward to the red tips.

Very good job on that bob. I knew just by the title that it was your thread because I remembered that you were planning on painting those fake bullets.

anyways, nice job again :tup:

Looks AWSOME man, I'm jealous!

I was never a big fan of clear magazines but now I'm very jealous...

Not bad, it's the small touches that go a long way.

Well done, it is the small things that seem to make all the difference.

Thanks for the comments guys. This project, while tedious with 18 mags to do, is quite easy. The most difficult part was masking the the white tips once they were painted. Tape is damn near impossible to get on straight wth the dual compound curve of the "bullet". I finally found some vinyl tubing just the right size for the reveal I wanted. This one was a lot easier than the BB ammo box I did for my daughter.
