Cool Just Painted my RA Caranx!

Got bored 1 day and started taking off the RA logo, soon enough I began thinking of doing something to the barrel. Finally, saturday I just taped the whole gun, & drew in some camaflauge designs or at least made it looked like I did.


Colors used where: Flat camu brown, Light Green, and believe it or not some dark blue that can barely be noticed.

I took it to an auto shop and the guy clear coted for me free of charge !

Here's what I ended up with !

Re: Just Painted my RA Caranx!

Lol ahahah thanks I went for the 2 on 1 combo !

Gun + Flasher = GUNFLASH!

@ 1st i was skeptical about the loud green but it grew on me so I kept it. Plus the wife liked it so she kinda had the final word on that matter.


I really hope it brings curious fish in for closer shots !

To be honest I think it's missing a lighter blue! there are dark blue spots that really look black from afar I wish I would had use a different color instead of that one. But hey It's to late to complain now.

Re: Just Painted my RA Caranx!

well as an italian I think the artistic aspect is important, but the most important is for it to kill fish.
So the balance of blue, gren, or whatever colour must be based on 2 thoughts:
- making it more difficult for the fish to recognize the shape of the gun
- make the camo mix with the typical bottoms of your local waters *

* For my waters (Thyrrenic Sea and lake Garda) I hate to say that brown works great!
