  • This is my updated tutorial on how to paint a nerf gun. I have an older tutorial on how to paint a nerf gun, but I felt that this new tutorial would more accurately represent how I paint Nerf guns now.
    Paints used in the video:
    Duplicolor Black Vinyl and Fabric Dye
    Citadel Khorne Red
    Citadel Runefang Steel
    Duplicolor Trim and Bumper Paint
    or
    Duplicolor Matte Wheel Clear Coat (recommended by me)

      @@J4ve I'm a dumbass? Theres an option to write your own captions as a creator and you really think that the automatic dictation is able to pick up the exact words for the whole video? eg 8:39 "rust-oleum" or at 10:29 where it correctly capitalises the name of a website. Not all of it is perfect as you'd expect a mistake or two when writing an entire 17 mins video. but you dumb

    Nice looking blaster, I'll be painting a couple of mine soon, I used to cut and bend a piece of wire coathanger and spraypaint over a newspaper-lined bathtub with the parts dangling from my makeshift jig, this way you get good coverage quicker and you can hold the components to be painted on the hangers so they don't stick to the floor/paper or whatever you cover the worksurface with.
    Great video though, and a really cool looking blaster in my favourite colours! Thanks for taking the time to make this tutorial.

My question is though, do you make paintjobs that show gun wear and grime and stuff? If so how could you get those details in. And do you use masking tape for some paint jobs?

    • @kingjoolien2495
      @kingjoolien2495 Před 4 lety +1

      Thermometer _ if you paint the trigger while the blaster is assembled, It may be harder to pull the trigger and some paint may chip off but it is not too bad and the blaster will still work. Also, if you do not disassemble the gun when spray painting, the blaster may not look as smooth and some paint may drip and look uneven but if you are a more casual painter it may not look that bad. I hope this helped
