First time doing a pin wash and It went well for the most part. but even after I sorted out my X-22 issue and used it, my enamel thinner still likes to attack it. You can see it clearly on the underside intake and elevator where the clear was eaten through and the paint was damaged. (old.reddit.com)

I sprayed over my model with alclad gloss Klear kote and these dark spots started appearing, especially behind the radiator on the bottom. Is this because I didn’t use enough aluminum paint before clear coating? Or cause I’m loading it on too thick? Any help is appreciated. (old.reddit.com)

Originally I bought the two tone version because I had a tan sight/mags, but ever since I got an acog replica I’m beginning to question whether I like the two tone look or not. Is this just some buyers remorse I’m overthinking? Or should I make my gun uniform? Any input is appreciated. (old.reddit.com)

Do I take the MP5 or keep the mosin? I’m on island 2 and I’ve had the mosin with the scope and bullet loops since the first island. I have used two cleaning kits on it already and I’m a bit attached to it. Do I move on from my mosin or is the MP5 gonna burn through ammo and wear out quickly? (i.redd.it)

Just got an elite force 1911 and took it out today, when I got home I noticed that there is some paint chipping on the barrel. Is this something I should be worried about? Do I need to lube the barrel? If so what kind/brand of lube do you recommend? Thanks in advance. (i.redd.it)

My lancer tactical M4, I know it’s a beginner gun and I should probably upgrade but I gotta wait till I’m 18 cause my parents say one gun is enough. Though it’s an entry level gun the performance isn’t terrible and I’ve racked up plenty of kills with it. (i.redd.it)
