H&K G36K Paintjob
 

Hey guys!

By seeing your great Paintjobs the desire grew and grew to have a PJ, too.

can you help me?

I saw simulated pj's, but how did you do this?:confused:

And what colours would you use?

I thought to olive, brown and green. :innocent:

So long
Billy

OMG your sig will be starting the fires for you.

ok I changed it.

But please BTT

get krylon colors... the are all good for PJ
choose after your desire ;-)

cheers

THX, but so we have the next problem:

wahts the best way? Stripes? The whole weapon? just parts?

I found not many pics, so I'm not sure....


edit
Du kommst ja aus der Schweiz, also müsstest du mich auch so verstehen^^

Das mit dem Krylon ist sowieso klar ;)

Heres what I think might be the most effective paint job on a gun Ive ever seen. I think this was originaly painted for use in Afghanistan. Then painted over a bit with green for what Im guessing is training in a temperate woodland environment. Simulating a camo cant be nearly as effective as making your gun look really dirty and muddy.

Thats a paint job? wow that's really good.

looks like a whole assload of mud....

Ok guys lets paint our guns before we hit the field *Guns being thrown into a pool of mud*

OK lets go!

lol

Ya Ive got some larger pictures. Looking closely at the pictures you can tell that they used a paint brush. And used their fingers to just smuge it around. The painted is raised up and gives it a textured look. So I dont think they used sprey paint. Maybe they just used latex paint like you would use on the walls in your house.

Heres a close up.

well
 

The original time proven and tested method of "mudpat"

I don't remember the exact way of doing it, but some people used to do camo paintjob on their mountainbikes with vaseline and 3 different colors, and the look was pretty close of the ones in the pictures

These pictures are what inspired my paintjobs last year on my G36.

Simple tan basecoat and fingerpaint OD overtop.

It's not the exact same but it worked great. And it let you play around a bit and have fun painting.

Hey,

Slick, the latex paint wont stick well to hard plastic because it is a water based paint. An acrylic enamel (also water based, but more of a plastic then a pigment based paint) will work, the same paints used in modeling. Also look at artists quality oils. One little tube goes a long way. Both acrylic or oils need a base primer, scruff up the surface well. Or plastic spray paint if you dont need detail. Just spray it on and forget about it.

Using sponge brushes prevents brush streaks too.
