So this is my first time posting, been a big fan of the site, looked pretty deep into the marker gallery. so here is my new gun, it is a variation of tigerstripe with yellow thrown in. (as you can tell by my jersey i'm not interested in camo, its paintball right) aslo before you ask the barrel needs to be fixed but enough, here it is      sorry if i posted too many, i'm proud of it tell me what ya think ok almost forgot as far as things ive put in it A5 flatline E-grip with W.A.S board for now i think its a BT folding stock Remote w/ quick disc. thats about it for now, but if anyone can help me, i'm looking for the folding handgrip that i've seen on the B5, if you know what i'm talking about could you please direct me, Thanks. that would be great |

well, you know i also have a homemade guile suit( took like 5 weeks to make it, and im not finished, but i dont like wearing it because here in texas, its way too hot for a big thick jacket. so that was fun, and i think now im going to try my hand at milling out a 98C and maybe stick it into a wood stock to make a springfeild look or the like. either that or a phantom, but i want a rifle-like gun and phanton fits the description but if so i'd try to make it a bolt action. and seeing as that is pretty much one sentence i'd rather apologize than make it work |

Very nice pattern, came out good. Personally, I'd rather have camo colors but that pattern is awesome, blended in with the jersey so well I had to look twice to find the gun. You should paint the rest of the stuff too like the stock, cyclone, and grip. How did you make the pattern like that? I need to repaint my SL-68II sometime, it's starting to fade.
