Looking good!So I finished my LUV blaster today, my first gun model, so bare with my lack of sanding. This was a project learning about enamel paints and lacquers.
Looks crisp Have you thought about toning down the blue a bit?I had to re-sand and paint a couple areas that I wasn’t happy with, but there has been progress.
Don B how’s yours coming along?
ps: I hope I’m not hijacking your thread. I saw others sharing their builds and just wanted to chime in.

Thanks.Looks crisp Have you thought about toning down the blue a bit?
okay, can I ask what your reference material is? I dont think baby blue is the way to goThanks.
Ita partially the lighting. The blue looks a lot darker in the picture. It’s pretty spot on to the reference I’m working from, but maybe it should lean a little more to baby blue.
I should rephrase. I don’t mean to paint it baby blue but only lean that way from what the colour appears to be in that picture.okay, can I ask what your reference material is? I dont think baby blue is the way to go
So...yeah. I wasn’t happy with that blue on the grip. The hero grip seems to be almost a pastel colour with a gloss coat. I decided to stop messing around and get the airbrush out. After some mixing around with acrylics in sky blue/ robins egg blue/ grey/ and a hint of pacific blue I think I came up with something I can live with.
In this pic you can see where the touch up is still wet, but I think a clear gloss on this will work out.
Thanks Don. How's yours coming along?Looking good and great to see you moving yours along.
I think the handle color is off, too baby blue...Had my Luv Blaster painted by Chris Morris on Facebook fantastic job
I think It's the lighting but It works for meI think the handle color is off, too baby blue...
Works for me too Obie71, one of the best I've seen. I really must stop letting life get in the way of finishing mine.I think It's the lighting but It works for me
