    It looked great in person. There are some completed pics floating around somewhere. It reminds me of the red/silver one that was done years and years ago. That one also looks great.

          Someone needs to run a batch of intelliframes to match the old splash kits. If they were reasonable, I'd order one to match the kit I have.

            A guy I played paintball with in high school loved to get anno jobs on his stuff. He had a cocker and bought a new trigger frame for it and sent it off to the same annodizer for a matching job, sending his barrel along as reference.

            Same guy doing the work, same equipment, same everything. It didn't even come close to matching.

            Maybe that's not the norm though...maybe this guy just sucked at color matching. Still, I don't think I'd risk my intelliframe. Better to just have the whole thing re-done in the same batch.

I understand that "to each his own" applies here but if you get a custom ano on a marker, isn't that a reflection of the owners personality? One size doesn't fit all and one color doesn't suit all. And as Neo said, "it a matter of choice". I had this marker done several years ago and when finished, it was exactly as I wanted it to be in every way. It is now the property of a very talented anodizer who said that he would never get rid of it. Granted, not for everyone.

              Mine also not for everyone, but got a bunch of offer when i thought id have to sell it to eat. I need to update the pic with the custom green spd grips

                  A lot of early splash anodize attempts were done just to exploit color on a marker. It was different, so it sold. Remember, many of the people that started the splash anodizing were also wearing bright fluorescent clothes in the 80s. It was hideous . After that, many very well done splash patterns emerged. Some of them are really nice.
                  Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

                            Should never have been invente, ever. Then people have the nerve to think they can get a premium for a fuggly splash job.

                            Lets just agree to disagree....The old school splash jobs that came on SP mags and cockers was beautiful in my opinion. I've always been a fan...just my two cents.
