what should i do?

[knownothingmags]

rules---->
please if you have input post a description and any thing that tells me what you are talking about, hey and give me an example of what you are talking about, ie. pictures, web addresses, anything.

ok here is what i have and the color they are now.

-Chord body-------------------------->gloss black
-Luke's prototype trojan rail--------->raw
-Deadly winds carbon fiber foregrip->red
-RPG triton frame--------------------->gloss black
-Talon trigger------------------------->gloss black
-Cp direct mount ASA On/Off-------->gloss black
-freak back---------------------------->dust black
-freak tip------------------------------>gloss gunmetal? not sure.

Side notes:
mag79 will be doing my sleeper mod for this frame.

ok here is the million dollar question for me.

What color should this setup be anno'd?

this will be one of 11 guns being put together. ideas for 3 of the 11 guns so far are: Dust Green, Dust black, Gloss black. then im having a special one done by mongoose. guess that one will have to be a surprise.

let me know any input:D

thankyou,
knownothingmags.

[GoatBoy]

I've been wanting to say this for a long time... I might dedicate a thread to it here or elsewhere...


If you ever want to sell the gun or any parts of the gun, your best bet is to go with black.

Black items always sell faster than any other fruity color.


Probably best to go with a good solid black and work on differentiating yourself via some other means. Say, by your skills on the field...

[knownothingmags]

thankyou for the input on the black. these guns will not be sold.

if i do sell them they will be sripped and re anno at consomer's cost and to customer's specs.

next input please.

thankyou,
knownothingmags

with automags, i think there are tons of guys that play woodsball. so i think you would be safe doing earth tone type of anos or camo's. of course there are some purple and light blue mags out there that if i had the money i would pick up. what about doing a hydro dip like mechanic did on one of his. that thing came out so sick and you would for sure loose it if you drop it or set it down it so blend in.

since I've rarely seen a chord body (assuming v2) in any color other than polished or black, I'd say get everything done in Venom red.
use gloss black accents... X-Valve, detents, trigger

[knownothingmags]

check one off for the red idea.

second is my second chord body mag.

chord body,
inteli frame,
alpha rail,
front tap am/mm vert asa adapter,
short gas thru grip

all these are going to be stripped since alot of milling has been done to the frame and rail.

color ideas for this setup or the last one?

keep em comeing guys you are being a big help.

thankyou,
knownothingmags.

Id say if you want something cool and flashy that would sell quickly if you did let one go I would recommend a Bio-Hazard anno from Bazooka_Boy since he is back just choose the colors you want in it.

Here is the last one he did for a guy on PBN just before he stopped annoing for awhile.

[knownothingmags]

dang nice.

what is the color pattern under the green splashing?

thanks,
knownothingmags.

[DevilMan]

I think it's considered "Biohazard w/green accents"

But BB is back so he'll be able to say something I'm sure.

[IrishRedneck86]

Yeah it is called Bio-Hazard and the base is a clear and grey/gunmetal acidwash with a green splash over top.

And thats just one combo any colors can be used I am thinking about having him do one of my rippers with the Bio-Hazard and black and silver base with a purple splash over top.

[knownothingmags]

sweet one to consider, keep em coming guys, more examples please.

I saw a mag at a field last time AI played (one of the few I have ever seen that wasn't one of my loaners), that was an incredible burnt orange acid color. I wish I had a pic, but I love burnt orange.

I am also a fan of blue and orange (not the Broncos, but I like the colors). Liked it ever since I owned my Cobra figure Alley Cat. In fact, I'm wearing the colors now...:D

I agree with earth colors, like browns with greens, but I also like bronze and copper combinations.

[knownothingmags]

oooh nice.

if you find pics let me know.

keep em coming guys,

thankyou,

[matto235]

Hecka lotta options here. Some of these suckers are beautiful

Acidworks on sheet 9 bottom of page

http://gruntbull.com/our_work.html

[knownothingmags]

they look good.

anymore ideas out there?

thankyou,
knownothingmags.

[BAZOOKA_Boy]

clear base, black splash, with yellow sponge. gloss

or a reverse fade with gunmetal and clear, fading from gunmetal with clear splash at the back of the gun to clear with gunmetal splash at the front, and opposite fading on the barrel, so tip and tail of gun are gunmetal with clear splash (or sub any other color(s) but teal, or turquoise would be pretty sweet...) gloss

a black or clear backround with splash in one color and sponge in a complimenting color (black background, purple splash, with blue sponge for example) gloss

straight up camo acidwash (olive, brown, black, light brown) Dust

clear or black base with anodized on paint splats in varying colors. gloss

solid gold baby! gloss of course

[knownothingmags]

bazooka if i find you to be the best choice you will have 10 full automags coming your way.

keep the ideas coming.

bazooka pm i have an idea to run by you,

thankyou,
knownothingmags.

[OPBN]

BioHazard like above, but with Orange splash and solid orange accents like the feedneck collar, trigger frame etc.

[Loguzzzzzz]

The detailed milling on the Chord body can get lost in a very busy ano. TnDeathInc. had a Chord Emag that was done in a Bio-Hazard ano and the body detail seemed lost to me. Just my opinion.


Here it is, you decide!

http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l308/hookkick13/DSC_0337-1.jpg


I think a nice polished fade would look great on the Chord. I have always like the "Tequila Sunrise" or "Rasta' fades and think that they would compliment the lines of a Chord body best.

Save the Bio-Hazard for something with a little less flare such as the V-D Toxic set up.

Just my $0.02
