Title: I hydro dipped my mrod
Post by: Ozarkairgunner on November 06, 2016, 09:28:01 PM
So I've been playing around testing my skills with hydrographic dipping, trying to get this started as a hobby job kinda thing, and completed my first project. I'll be honest the first attempt was murder and I didn't realize how much humidity would affect the product, the 2nd time I dipped it, after completely sanding it down and starting over, it turned out good, but not quite perfect. You could still see some lines where things didn't blend and I felt I could still do better so I tried on more time and these are the results.

There is also a pink camo Disco coming soon that I did for my wife, waiting on a barrel to make it in and I'll assemble it and post pics.

oozing awesome there CJ!!! Can't wait on find the pattern and funds to have you give my Talon a face-lift.  I love my rifle as she sits but somehow can't help but think you can make her even sweeter!
