Sorry itīs not finished but ready to show before getting finished !!!

Itīs a Tippmann Modell 98 with custom body works for example slim Grip and cocking on top !!!

The surface will be laminated with Glasfiber to get more details, stability and straight lines !!!

At the moment iīm unemployed so it will take time to get the money for the rest !!!

 

Sorry for the bad gramatic iīm german !!!

Wow! That is definitely a different approach to getting the job done. It still looks a little rough but I think it will look great when finished and painted.

Good Work!

That looks great. The shroud could use some work though. I'm sure the fiberglass will help it a lot, especially to smooth it out.

Rough around the edges, but a little paint and probably some body-filler, I think that could turn out to be a great looking marker!

QFT.


I like how you have fit the front handguard around the feed neck.  One of the primary things I dislike about Tippmann based M16/M4 mil-sim markers is the extra space that is normally left in this area because of the Tippmann's basic body shape.  It just ruins the effect for me.  If I were you, I would consider doing a "cut out" on the handguard that would still allow the "drop down" feature of the feed neck to be used.  You could even attach the cut out portion of the handguard to the feed neck so it folded out of the way with it.  This would allow you to retain functionality while getting a realistic look.

I think this marker has real potential as a very realistic looking mil-sim.  Please keep us updated.

I think so too!!! I donīt like the big space between Grip, Magazine and Frontguard!!!

More details a cheap good looking black paint will fnish it!

Iīm from Böblingen (US-Base Panzerkaserne) next to Stuttgart (US-Base Patch Barracks) so itīs possible to play that Marker in Germany (offizell its not aloud to play Markers that look real because they think itīs Training for war (german:Wehrsport) and the public thinks that becuse itīs not aloud to do public information about paintball so no one takes care but the players do!!!)and shoot with 290fps not the german max. of 210fps(if itīs stronger, it will be handled from the cops like a real weapon and you never see your Marker again and pay a bill i think i can renember 600-800€(1000Bucks) or more(If the jugde didnīt likes you but jail just when you hurt someone)!!!I think that s.... with 210fps you can only play on small fields and Flatlinebarrels donīt like this speed!)

Landstuhl is the same far as munich from me!!! (South West Germany next to France,Swiss and Austria) Schwabenland, Linsen mit Spätzle(famous Food)!!!

I hope it wonīt take long to finish the M98-M4!!!

Pics from the best Woodlandfield in the south-west of Germany you can see on my HP there are many other players with also good looking Tippmannīs!!!

Here some examples!!!

looks good! you might want to change the screw and nut on the feed neck though, looks a little rusted out.

i'm familiar to a degree with the Stuttgart area, my dad was stationed there in the army back in the 80's; since then though the family housing he was living in has been demolished, nothing but pits in the ground now.

Now the fps are OK!

Thanks from this side to the Tippmann people at the Big Game Europe.They helped me very well (new Powertube for my A5 for example!)and the problem was the hose i had, a microhose now i have the germanhose 6mm (us/uk 6.3mm) and the gas flow is much better so i can reach the 300fps without any problems.

At the Big Game a friend made a video of cocking the M4 i hope he will make it ready for watching soon (After getting the maximum power the cocking thing jumps a little bit but i will make the sprin stronger so then it will be fine!). I post it when he did it !!!

I donīt know the regular openings!!! Big Game is 2times a year (Mai ans Sept.) but i donīt know the normal gamedays! Munich to Mahlwinkel are zirka 500km and the Autobahn(Highway) is the fastest but you have go with others(Trucks, Grannies, etc.) to so i think it will take 5h to be there and on normal days there will not be so many people like the last BG (1600 Players who payed)

You schould take a holiday for min. 3 days !!! BB is 200km away from Munich itīs smaller but itīs US-Field problem is the open just each second weekend on Saturday!

So both would be a expensive trip!!!

I should get a little bit webspace or go in front at the next Video from the BB-Crew they made a great video from the Big Game this Month!Itīs 250 mb big if you have a good download speed itīs fast to download!It is on that Server:  http://ftp.taims.eu/TOBI/Biggame.Mahlwinkel.05.2008_hd.mpg - http://ftp.taims.eu/TOBI/Biggame.Mahlwinkel.05.2008_hd.mpg

Iīm on that video but iīm just sleeping (Iīm the first of the guys who sleeps in the Bus (Base Cap)) but there is no M98-M4 scene, sorry but many X7 people and the "Band of Brothers" with there moded A5īs to i think itīs M1 called!!!

I like it because itīs a very good resolution like i wanted it for the M98-M4 clip but i try to get an HD Video as soon as possible!!!

The Grip is getting stronger by a Metallplate (4mm) because it wont be strong enough i think so.Between Hammer and Bolt i donīt know how itīs called (german :Gestänge) i made a long hole for the top cocking and i (german : hartlöten) put a short pin on it!

Iīm not shoure you understand it but on the pic you will see what i mean!!!

I got my 98 Custom when I was 13 and would ride my bike to the local woods to play paintball after school.

 Example : For your first kill may you donīt come to jail if your younger than 21years and did nothing bad before ! They think  itīs just a stupid young boy and he will learn !!! If the puplic  would know more about paintball it wonīt be a big problem but we also have lawīs which stop any commercialīs in the public (Theý argument itīs like train  to kill anyone) so you see what happens when you hold your people stupid all laws can happen !!!
