So my project is done being milled and should be sent back to me very shortly. My next step after that is to get PDS installed on it. The problem I am running into is what to do with it anno wise. I will be posting a picture of it later and any suggestions would be welcome. I have some ideas but nothing firm and would like to get opinions of others as well.

Nice! :eek:
Where can I get me one of those?
For the anno, i would go with a black to gold dust fade.

Very nice job there. And black is where it's at ;)
What exactly are you asking? Where to get it done, or what color?

Dust = teh ug. Get a gloss fade. It doesn't really matter what, because that body is totally secks

get a unique color combo, everyone else has all the basic color combos get like black to orange or black to pink or something unique and will stand out.

with as many cuts that were done the body I am worried a polished finish would show to many of them. Dust is easier to hide imperfections.

I would say a matte body with gloss parts. I think a fade would not look good on there because of all the milling

a blue to gold fade would look great with the teardrop thing you got going on.

thats where i am leaning right now, either midnight blue/gray or white/black. Not the whole body 1 color either basically accents

I personally would do the receased cuts in either a dark color then the body in a light color or vise versa to make it stand out. A fade would simply hide all the detailed milling that you have had done.
Me personally I would probably do the recessed cuts in a satin black and the rest of the body in a eletric blue or even a MD yellow. I think either combo would make your mill work stand out.

I am with shootpaint on this one.
You need to draw attention to the milling. it will make it look much better.

yeah, maybe do the teardrop milling one color, the gun another color.
Or you could do an orange/blue vertical fade (orange on top, blue on bottom). You'd probly want to get all your parts done for that though. Not sure if you're looking to anno the whole gun or just the body.
I like dust annos. Alot more unique, doesnt show scratches as easily, cooler IMO. but thats just me.

Unless you know something I dont you cant get a white ano.
I have did a fade on a fish bone B2K a while back and we got close to a white by bead blasting the body and then doing a clear ano on it but it looked like a speckled white gray mix.

I'm not sure how it would look on the gun, but gray and blue sound pretty cool. Could anyone photoshop that to get an idea or something?

is that with the anno? Or is it just prepared for a dust anno? looks very smooth, totally different from those first pics you posted like a month ago. It turned out really well :cool:

well I'm thinking if you havent decided on an anno yet, something involving silver would be cool. Maybe a blue/silver or green/silver or something.
