Alright, I am gonna get another cocker and I want a halfblock....

(yes I know this is AO, but hey, you guys love photochop) :)

Anyway I want to buy a tutle cocker but I don't know how to make it really pretty.... I am debating between two themes:

1- Tequilla Turtle (red to orange fade simialr to emag)

2- Turtle color... this is the idea I like more but I don't have the foggiest how to do a green design that resemebles a turtle.. or at least would look cool...

any suggestions on how to do the turtle color?

heres a black version of what I am talking about, mine will use an STO ram annod to match the fade and an 8 or 10" barrel (and no eframe) :(

how about for the 'turtle color' do a light green-dark green acid wash? It wouldnt' be like a graphic design of a turtle shell, but it kinda be along the same lines.


Just a suggestion,

you know what sounds cool? A gas through on that cocker thats what.
In any case, the halfblocks are nice and small but if i got one i would be worried about operating pressue if i didnt have an eye. But i bet you know more than i. I vote for what blazestorm just got on his cocker, but for that price, you could get an eframe :).
BTW crazy ivan does some of the best anno i have ever seen (mossman can confer) i currently own a peice of his work now.

another idea that me and my girlfriend are throwing around.... do the acid wash on the body. That becomes the "shell" of the turtle. Then do a simple one color light green on the barrel, grip, and reg... those will be the head and legs...

I know this sounds cheesy.. but hey, I think building theme guns are fun :)
