Step 7Handle, mask and paint
Ok, i decided to cover the handle first, as it saved trying to glue ontop of paint.
" Picture 1 shows a simple denim cover to the handle. i used black denim, which actually worked really well, a couple of strips of cardboard underneath added a ribbed effect.
" Picture 2 shows the gun masked then painted - mask off any section you want to remain exposed, for me, this was the lenses, and all the brass. but non of the silver metal work.
I than gave it a coat of black spray paint - using my favorate, direct to metal spray paint.
as always, LOTS OF THIN LAYERS, dont just cake it in paint. Take your time, and the results will be better.
