Well I am custom milling the body. I have it to the point where I have to remove the remaining paint, Hand sand it and paint it. I found a spray paint kit that is a color change one. It will go from blue to red. Pearlesent type paint i guess ?!?

N  e ways I think it's gonna look insane when its done. I have already made it shoot as fast as it will go, well without pollishing the internals :) thats next. I have modded about as much as possible for speed, yes i know "it's a tippmann"-Trust me it shoots fast :D.

Here are some pics. Oh and feel free to ask me questions. There was alot of things done to it...


My gun in negative... It thought it looked kool. n e ways to the point.


The Over View. I ground out the "push safe" and "push fire" as well as there is a piece that shrouds the velocity adjuster. That was removed and flushed with the body.


The main Grip. All around the grip there is a little ridge. I smoothed it all out. Well all around the gun i trie to round the corners and make things flow.


I took the knobys of the foregrip. Made it round and faded it into the gun. Again making it all flow. There is alot of work that is minor but makes a great differance.

I made the tippmann words go smooth from the body then like a wave. Neat!

OTher view of that


The 98 custom portion

From the side view. It goes smooth from the body, to a peak, then smooth again. Beside that i am going to make a deacal that say TURBO and it will run vertically, right beside custom. On the opposite side of the bolt it will say
DUTCHMAN
EDITION


I ground down a good portion if the dovetail and slanted it smooth into the body of the gun. That took along time to get right.


The useless "rear sight" was removed. I took the back portion out completely. And instead of triangle stock looking side appearence i made it come out from the gun and once again rounded it and made it like a wave to the back. I also ground between the two side the make  Flow smoother. Youll see that better in the next pic.

All the marker u see on the gun is just guidelines and doodling, lol. Its all coming off n e ways.

I even rounded of the square ish look off the top part of the grip i have.
 I am going to buy a flame drop forward i saw and make it look 3D. Oh yeah pimpin.

I found flame pin striping that will run from the front of my J&J barrel to teh back of my gun down behind the rear sight and end whener the black cap in on the back of the gun. I think it will look good.


So there she be. My pretty. Well right now its an ugly duckling. But when its painted it will be a pretty painted ugly duckling. Your Thoughts?
=================================
Update I am going to get the Custom Products asa, reg, and flame drop forward.... in Blue. I will look awesome.

Kruel Intentions in and out of gameplay. Winner always takes all!

In the end, Speed is fine,
but accuracy is final!
Be polite, be professional, be prepared to kill.

I'd mill the letters completely off if I were you, but it looks good either way.

looks like the lettering is melting off the gun, looks cool tho it's new.

sandblasting....might eat the metal like butter?

I have seen Sandblasted Model 98's.

is the flames on the JJ going to match the rest of the gun if not It might look weird

Thanks. SO as I said earlier I am look at getting a Custom Products asa, reg, and flame drop forward( in blue). Has n e one used n e of these items on their guns. If so i would like some feed back on what you thought of them. I already checked out pbreview and they were all well rated but I want to hear what you have to say.

I cant wait until it is finished.

convection oven?

oh yeah lol my bad. Actually i took those when i was living in sylan lake last month. I no longer have that. I live  in edmonton now. The other metalic looking thing is my metal paintball case. Its like a lrage metal brief case.
