will be starting on the Powerline stock with a Urban camo design. I finished up the stencils tonight and the stock was shot with it's base coat of bedliner then flat white after my hunt today. Tomorrow I will start the layering of color, to worn out tonight from the ol cold and it takes some time to hand draw and cut out custom stencils. We'll keep all updated on the camo plus the scope will get the same treatment.:) Ed
-
I'm really looking forward to the end result,,,, just by looking at the stencils I can tell it's gonna be a beauty.....
Jeff
-
Hmmmm,....perhaps another Mod for the Sierra!!!! tjk
-
Gonna look sweet Ed. I bet the bedliner gives the plastic stock, a much better feel and sound.
-
Hurry and finish her up buddy..:) Can't wait to see her in all her beauty.

We'll see what the airbrush spits out hehe and Mike along with the memory foam in the butt and bedliner the stock's got a nice solid sound to it now. Ed
-
First thing in the morning buddy hehehe, don't want to shoot it on these cold med's, might come out looking like a hippy van lol. Ed
-
Hippy vans are cool man! Never seen one scare a nutter yet. Peace
-
But probably tagged a few on the way to WOODSTOCK! hehehe. Ed
-
hey Ed, i need the stock of my daughters recon painted pink.
i dont want to spray paint it because i know it will wear off.
are you down?
-
No problem Craig, just give me holler when you want it done and give me a idea of what shade of pink that she want's. I like hearing about our members children getting into airguns so if you want, just cover the shipping and the shooting of color will be NO CHARGE, ZERO, ZIP. :) Ed
-
Ed, you are a gentlman.
my daughter is jumpin up an down as we speak.
she says hot pink.
i can send you the stock when you are ready, no rush.
-
ed, now this i've been waiting for...can't wait to see how it turns out!
-
Well I'm up and feeling a little better so I'll let the temp. in the shop warm up a touch and start slinging some paint.:) Craig I sent you a PM. Ed
-
lol, is it bad that i care more about ed's stock than whats going on with politics in the back room???...lol, i'm just gonna say no...hows it comin ed???
-
Nice work buddy,
I'm sure it will be a real looker, when you done :)
Bill

hey ed, is there any chance that if someone felt like paying more that they could get a digital camo on their gun? if you can, i would just love it. for my powerline, i love the winter camo that you do, but when i get a shadow fox, i'm gonna have it converted to .20, and i wanted a urban camo on that, and i really like digital camo, but either way, lol, its gettin sent to ya.
-
Yup Dave I can do urban camo digital style also, little square boxes everywhere.:) Ed
-
It takes some time to do it right and the first pattern has been shot with a matt clear on top, I always shoot clear between layers since it helps with any tape removal on the next pattern. It also seals the stock better to let it last for many moons.:) Here's the first pattern applied and curing for the day, tomorrow the dark gray will be shot with another coat of clear. Ed
-
...ed, you just turned into my hero for that.
-
That looks great Ed !! Can't wait to see it with the rest of the coats !! I may just have to send you my powerline :)
Jeff
-
I'll be getting back after it tomorrow after a morning hunt.:) Ed
-
Looks Great!
-
