Here's the latest incarnation of my tippmann. I have nothing to say to any of you. Apart from this...
Thanks in advance to those of you who like it and offer kind words. I appreciate it as I worked quite hard on this.
Those of you who don't like it, keep your replies objective and MATURE because nobody likes arrogant little smarty-pants. Especially arrogant little smarty pants who couldn't paint this good if thier life depended on it.
If you have any questions, I will not be answering them here. I am however easy to find on another MAJOR tippmann related forum.

Sorry, but I think it's a little weak.
Edit: Actually... the flames on the grip frame look pretty cool (i.e. keep those), but those dragons make the gun look pathetic.
Oh, and just because somebody can't do a better job doesn't mean that they can't criticize your work. If I wanted a decent or professional job done on mine, I'd pay for it. That's how this world works.

There is no denying it's different but the dragons look pretty bad. The flat paint doesn't do them justice.
A clear coat may help but not much can help the fact that (although I'm
sure you spent alot of time on it) it looks like a 1st grader drew it
on there with crayons.

interesting the dragon could be made alittle clearer on the gun itself perhaps some more detail. get rid of that one on the hopper both sides should go out to the barrel tip not the back. good job for now but needs some work and it could look great. the grips are awsome.
oh now i remeber why i dont like this forum becuese of all the 12 year old idiots who think they are better than everyone else murdoc get a life no one likes you go away

This is the reason I don't use the tippmann forum. I only occasionally post a pic of my marker so that the mature users can get to see it. I care not for the tediom of the juveniles. Heck... given half a chance I would give them all the Jay & Silent Bob treatment :)

People in this thread that have thusfar met the criteria for "Arrogant little smarty pants". Following your offending replies are the reasons why you fit this criteria, read the reason and then learn from your mistake.
Murdoc18 "Ooooooookayyyyy...def. not cool. Probably the worst paintjob i've ever seen on a paintball gun. WOW." "Haha, your right it does look like a mentally handicapped 12 year-old painted it. Good one Gewwy!"
You are stating your opinion as a fact. A surefire way to antagonise somebody, especially if they might disagree with you. State your opinion as your opinion.
evil_fingers "Is yer A5 suppose to represent Puff the Magic Dragon?....the green dragon isnt cuttin it, now if yer A5 was still black and have a red dragon wit yellow flames and flames comin out from the mouth....then you would have "a work of art"....nice try, hit the drawing board again!"
You are attempting to make a good post, but you're saying that "what's cool" is only what you think is cool. As you know... there's actually no such thing.
Seawolf "but those dragons make the gun look pathetic."
A straightforward put down. Not a good way to communicate with people.
Sharkbit "I think that it is truly wonderful that he allowed his mentally challenged daughter to paint his gun."
I don't know if you should even be on this list, but what on earth is this about? how would you know if I have a daughter or not. Mabey I missed something in the thread somewhere, if I did, feel free to correct me.
Greedy "it looks like a 1st grader drew it on there with crayons."
This is an observation that somebody who has spent hours doing detailed painting, is not going to take well. Think before you speak.
Keithypoo "looks at picture, runs to toilet, and vomits.*Cough ugly cough"
If this was all you were going to post... what a pointless endeavor. Plus it's offensive.
Tippmannfan12 "what that is retarded it takes away the beuty of its core design"
You are also stating your opinion as a fact. In future say "I think it looks retarded, I think it takes away..."
Tipp123 "that has to be the worst paint job i have ever seen and it singal handedly ruined your entire gun"
Here we have more stating of opinions as facts, plus it's a put down.
Some sad sad replies. Some of you are in serious need of assertiveness training. This is WHY many people don't like coming to this forum.

Plus, it was pretty lame of you to critique everybody on their own opinions...

First of all, with that statement you started the arrogance
long before
anyone even knew this thread existed. Secondly, you specifically
tried to call out several people for stating their opinions as
fact. Yet you never stopped to think that maybe your gun isnt all
that great just because you THINK it is. Take your head out from
between your legs and take note of your own arrogance and hypocracy.

You were right. Looks like it antagonized three pages of
somebodies. Perhaps if you would have taken your own advice on
your first post
you might have gotten a few more supportive comments. Your gun
wasnt that great to begin with, but your hypocracy is even far more
pathetic than
that.

Seems like someone can't take a little constructive criticism, heck, I
even gave him suggestions, complimented him on his time (which he even
used to rebut against me), and commented on his originality.
Whatever man, you choose to read what you want to read and reply to the only negative part of my post.
Do us all a favor and stop whining when people don't think your marker
is god. I know from experience that no matter how great you think your
marker is, no matter how much time you spend on it, no matter how great
it really looks there is always someone who doesn't like something.
Be a big boy and take the negative comments as something to improve on.

Well , He did make some valid points , but again , this forum is for posting , and assuming what you are going to recieve is everybodies "Opinions" .
I cant say much positive about the execution of his idea , but Concept , originality , colors is definitly worth another try !! , maybe next time use a liner,or spotter brush for detail work .
Duncan , Loew-cornell , or American painter brushes are good ones .
I had over 30 hours in this paint job , and I got some decent flames too .

Last thread entry...
Have a merry Xmas and holiday everybody (Yeah I know we're still 5 weeks away).
I see there is an overwheming urge to flame me back for me pointing out what you did wrong, I expected this... so I'm not going to dignify it by reading or replying to any of it. I just skipped over the last 10 or so replies.
You can call me crazy, you can point out what you think are my faults... but at the end of the day, you are accomplishing absolutely nothing. Get a life.
Oh, and sincerely thanks again for those of you who aren't arrogant little smarty pants and kept your replies mature and objective. Finding your replies amongst the army of 12 year olds is tough but it's good to hear your positive feedback.

I cant say much positive about the execution of his idea , but Concept , originality , colors is definitly worth another try !! , maybe next time use a liner,or spotter brush for detail work .
Duncan , Loew-cornell , or American painter brushes are good ones .
I had over 30 hours in this paint job , and I got some decent flames too .

I painted it , because when I will want the Camo effect (desert camo , guys) I wont be needing a high rate of fire . I put the revvy on when I want to rock the speedballers , then I dont care about looks , just speed , .
But see my point , I post it again, and I still Get flamed , LOL , guess what,,? , I dont really get upset about it , you could paint the mona Lisa on Yer gun and still get flames , no biggie . Works for me , and thats what counts

You are stating your opinion as a fact. A surefire
way to antagonise somebody, especially if they
might disagree with you. State your opinion as your
opinion.
evil_fingers"Is yer A5 suppose to represent
Puff the Magic Dragon?....the green dragon isnt cuttin
it, now if yer A5 was still black and have a red dragon
wit yellow flames and flames comin out from the
mouth....then you would have "a work of art"....nice try,
hit the drawing board again!"
You are attempting to make a good post, but
you're saying that "what's cool" is only what you
think is cool. As you know... there's actually no such
thing.
Seawolf"but those dragons make the gun
look pathetic."
A straightforward put down. Not a good way to
communicate with people.
Sharkbit"I think that it is truly wonderful that
he allowed his mentally challenged daughter to paint
his gun."
I don't know if you should even be on this list, but
what on earth is this about? how would you know if I
have a daughter or not. Mabey I missed something
in the thread somewhere, if I did, feel free to correct
me.
Greedy"it looks like a 1st grader drew it on
there with crayons."
This is an observation that somebody who has
spent hours doing detailed painting, is not going to
take well. Think before you speak.
Keithypoo"looks at picture, runs to toilet, and
vomits.*Cough ugly cough"
If this was all you were going to post... what a
pointless endeavor. Plus it's offensive.
Tippmannfan12"what that is retarded it
takes away the beuty of its core design"
You are also stating your opinion as a fact. In
future say "I think it looks retarded, I think it takes
away..."
Tipp123"that has to be the worst paint job i
have ever seen and it singal handedly ruined your
entire gun"
Here we have more stating of opinions as facts,
plus it's a put down.
Some sad sad replies. Some of you are in
serious need of assertiveness training. This is WHY
many people don't like coming to this
forum. |
Actually Jimmy NZ, you yourself actually fit the criteria
you've so eloquently described. Case in point? Here
are some excerpts from what YOU wrote in your
original post:
"I have nothing to say to any of you. Apart from this...
Those of you who don't like it, keep your replies
objective and MATURE because nobody likes
arrogant little smarty-pants. Especially arrogant little
smarty pants who couldn't paint this good if thier life
depended on it.
If you have any questions, I will not be answering
them here. I am however easy to find on another
MAJOR tippmann related forum."
Arrogant?
Webster's describes arrogance as follows: "A sense
of superiority which manifests itself in an
overbearing manner."
Now, as a rule, I don't get off on flaming people, but
you are literally begging for it. Arrogance? Perhaps
before you make accusations of arrogance, you
should have clear grasp of the meaning of the word,
which I have provided for you.
There is little doubt you "worked hard" on painting
your marker. However, unless I've missed
something, this is still a free country and people are
entitled to their opinions, unless of course, you think
that just because you "worked hard" on painting your
marker, everyone should automatically like it -just
because you said so. But then, I guess that's where
the real arrogance comes in, doesn't it?

Seawolf This is WHY many people don't like coming to this forum.
Who doesn't like coming here?! This is one of the best forums on the internet... Why don't you go hang out at pbnation and see how loving and caring all the members are. |
Dude this is one of the WORST PB related forums on the net, It's a small step up from PBnation, but not really even a whole rung higher on the ladder. 90% of the opinions here are negative without either being constructive or even going so far as to have a point.
I only stop by when I feel too smart and need to drop a few IQ points. Your endless banter over the latest overpriced electro crap and constant inflation of your BPS will kill even the most persistent brain cells.
Someday maybe you will grow up.
And Jimmy WTF are you doing posting pics here, you should know better! It's not like you are going to get a good response form any of these tweenies.

Not a fan.
Let's take a closer look at what this thread started as.
"Here is my gun. Many people have probably told me that it sucks, yet I am going to post it in the very place which I have accused of being negative and critical. I am going to write some "warnings" which take away any chance of these self-acknowledged negative critics believing I have anything resembling testicles. Then I am going to put them and their forum down."
Hmmmmmmm... now... let's see... how could I squeeze any more idiocy, hipocracy, and downright lack of testicle-iscity (haHA!) out of my forum about my dragon gun. I know! I could.... WHINE and ACT SUPRISED about the inevitable and self-predicted put-downs against me and my crappy artwork! Hooray!!!! Yippee!!!!!
Seriously, can you imagine this guy showing up to a paintball game? His own team would be shooting him.
What is this, my third post? Already I'm tearing people down. It's an obvious outcry for love and attention!
