Hey Guys and Gals,
Here are a few shots of the completed camo job on my OP Cobra M4a1 76. I have already started decaling and will be doing some detail painting as well soon. This particular dio will be in an upcomming issue of TMMI. Thanks for looking
Cheers,
Bryan

Nice one Bryan. I like the tarps on the back-what sort of putty are they made with?
I don't know why, but the black/OD camo seems to give an M4A1 a bit more 'beef'.

Bryan,
What are all the little circles along the edges of the tarps supposed to be? Grommets?

Thanks for all the kind words guys, Alex yes the tarps you are reffering to are actually air identification panels one is cerise and the other is flourescent yellow. They are in fact grommet attatchment points, good catch. They are made out of rolled out Aves Apoxie Sculpt. The grommet's are made by pressing a mechanical pencil into the still wet putty.
Cheers
Bryan
