They say the female of the species is the most dangerous. "http://tacticalcamo.com/Camouflage-Gallery.html"">  So this is a birthday present for a young lady. Dad wanted her to have camo; she wanted an all pink marker. This was the compromise.  (Seems like I need to add two black stripes on plunger body of the cyclone.) I can totally relate to this dad. I cant wait to get my little girl playing! Is 4 y/o too soon to practice CQB drills? ------------- http://tacticalcamo.com - Custom Duracoat Camouflage and Stencils |

I use an automotive detail gun with a 3oz cup to do the large stuff (base coats, etc...) For the fading and detail work I use a double action Iwata Eclipse. That badger seems good, but I havent used one. Hope that helps.

I like the concept. I might have gone with a hot pink instead.
I think a dark purple to black fade would look nice as well. -------------

| Awesome job, always loved your work, and in my oppinion 4 is a little young i'd say about 6 or 7 is good but hey, it's all up to her and her father. 9/10 |

I wouldn't like it as my personal gun, but its a very nice paintjob and I like it. It could use a trigger though :P -------------

The paint job is awesome. The colors make me feel dirty. ------------- One shot, One kill.... Oh, wait. What fun is that? TEN shots, one kill, and a bunch of welts on your back. |

This is amazing. I was thinking of doing the exact same pattern in pink for my mother's foster child, only with an A-5. At least I know how it will look now. Awesome! -------------
