Title: Dragon is changing CQB Mask for Sogo
Post by: Dragon on September 09, 2011, 06:58:26 PM

Well, I got kinda tired of BBs striking my forehead and making "BB Pimples", going in between my helmet and CQB mask.

 So, I looked for one of those nicer mask like my friend Cody has, and... well...

 I just couldn't bring myself to spend 89.00 bucks plus shipping on one.

 So I got this:

and turned it into this:

Forgive the crappy pic... my camera on my phone was all I had at the time. It's capitalistic to say the least.

And there will probably be no more of this:

The colors I used is actual flat white, and OD green. I sprayed the white on, not trying to make it thick, leaving the "edges" more grey from the black undercoat.
 Then I used an "over-spray" technique to apply the OD in a mist in a cross pattern down the middle and eyes. I covered the eye holes with tape before hand though.
I couldn't find my brush, so I used a paper towel with a bit of flat white on it to streak the exact center for a highlight.
The streak dried fast , not letting me blend it so well... , but it does the job as a highlight though.

I can tell Jon where I got it, and he can get some for Sogos from there probably. 

I'm not going to announce a competitor or online shop because it isn't fair to Sogos or SA.

and re-did my MP5 SD6 today as well.

New spring, so I dunno if it's it's still Sogo's legal yet or not.  It "should be", as it's only a m100 spring, but I tell you it's one stiff m100 spring! I'll chrono it soon, to make sure though.

New colors on it! Used a Dust-Sand color for some of the shell and parts.
Installed new accessory rail on top as well.
