Here's my new paint job I think it looks pretty cool. All I need now is some upgrades... (It might look weird... my camera isnt very good and I can't take pictures...)

Not bad, i just htink you need to get more red incorporated into the gun. Other than that keep upgrading and it will look schweet. Keep us posted. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

It doesn't look even and smooth. I would strip it down to metal and do it again. Be sure to use primer, then base coats of the color you want, and finally a clear coat, for gloss and protection. (They make paint in one can that does all of the above, but it's best the old fashion way. |

I think it looks alright, nothing to brag about, but alright. Also you should get some upgrades for that gun, a stock gun isn't your best option. -------------
