Alright so i told y'all I would get some green tonight so here is a little teaser...
I got myself a nice airbrush set and my god is it a world of difference...adding weathering has become so much easier now and soon I'll be painting 2 helmets one for me and one for Cyberpyrot and I can't wait...I think I airbrushed just about everything I own tonight haha I added some weathering to my shoulder bells Cyberpyrot has made for me and I think it turned out great but maybe a little to much haha what do y'all think?

Thanks man! Yeah honestly that's one of my favorite parts working with the aluminum is no silver paint! Haha and it just looks and feels so authentic to the actual character it's such a neat concept and cyberpyrot is doing one hell of a job whipping these awesome pieces out left and right

How does it feel comparable to say an abs set up as far as weight goes? I can't imagine that it would be too much heavier.

It's heavier...when you hold it you know that you're holding metal buy its aluminum so it's not to heavy you can still wear it and be comfortable

That's good to know. Like I said before I might have to try that for a set, simply because it feels so authentic and it saves a step on the painting portion haha.

Haha yeah it does save a step but adding the dents with a dremmel sanding and buffing get tiresome after a bit it is easier to do a few layers of silver paint...but the end result on the real metal is just amazing...here I am complaining about dremeling sanding and buffing...Cyberpyrot has it pretty hard with having to cold forge all these pieces.
