M14 Socom 2 project

[Blitzz40]

Hi everyone,

Recently ive bought a TM M14 Socom and felt in love with a pic of a Springfield Socom 2.



So i bought on WGC the M14 Nitro.Vo rail and just finished installing it (with the help of Shakal). It also have a TM mount that ive had to cut to fit the existing nitro rail.
The M14 is stock, no internal upgrade, just a Prometheus tightbore 420mm on the way.

The project is not finish but i tought that i will share some pics. It will be paint like the original pic except for the white i intend to use some light green. Let me know what you think and maybe some suggestion for the paint.

Here's the pics:











Cheers!

go to a hobby shop and buy the Model Master Spray cans in these colors
S.A.C. Bomber Tan
S.A.C. Bomber Green
do tigerstripe style, but leave black in it.
thats my opinion.

if you DO do this, make sure you spray from a far distance with these paints, they like to gum up if not misted enough. keep about a 12-15 inch distance.


ps, its a shame your top rail doesnt run flat straight to the back of the gun. those 2 sights would look better lower to the gun i think.

Awesome looking gun, very well done.

Mount a 203 on there lhahahah if you actually have one please put up a pic.

I know, i bought the mount before the nitro rail. Also i cant find a mount that would do this effect. The Nitro rail should have come with it in my opinion.

For the paint i have 3 airbrushes and i think that Modelmaster do make paint for this medium. Ill check the colors. Thanks

A 203!!! lol

Sure it will be an interesting pic, but sorry, i dont have one.

[DC_ACU]

airbrush would look good too, but i think the quickly, but nicely doin spraypaint job looks just as good.

Wow! Good job man, I like the way you've moded that gun, looks like a gun an actual operator would use. Did you use any specific pictures as a refference? Agin nicely done.
