Steve Coombs Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 This is leading me into temptation! Back in the pre-COVID days, colleagues in the office next door commenced battle at each day at 12 with a range of Nerf weaponry, including a bowcaster for our resident Valkyrie. Sometime in 2022, when we are supposed to be able to return to the workplace, it'd be fun to storm office 37. I'd paint the thing in RAL 7013 first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSG0 Posted September 14, 2021 Author Share Posted September 14, 2021 Watching the lunch time battle would be great fun no doubt. Great way to work off some stress I bet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original props were painted a Humbrol colour called "Brown Bess" 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FG2Si Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Thanks @NoSG0! A friend in the States has graciously offered to order one for me. This will go nicely with my clear Blade Runner blaster water gun. I wish I still.had my old MGC Auto9. Carl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadman Disciple Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 My son bought me one of these for Father's Day this year. His was on backorder for over a year & he paid the standard price, whatever is was at the time. I did some research on what the paint color might be & i found Halfords do camo colors in a 300ml can & im thinking the green in that selection could suffice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice one, the colour used in Aliens was actually “Vintage Brown Bess” by floqil - Archive X paints carry that colour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSG0 Posted August 9, 2023 Author Share Posted August 9, 2023 (edited) Necro necro thread I watched a few Alien dark descent game vids which reminded me of this. There are a few repaint videos on yt. As mentioned by Phas3e Brown Bess paint by SMS. Does Humbrol have BB paint?? I am including a link to a video of the Cheyenne pilot in the latest game. she made me chuckle. paint vid: Hunslet video. Caution for spoilers and language, it is just a bit of fun.

One just called Brown & the other Khaki Brown, im think the first brown might suit, id have to pop down to my local store & have a look at the color label. Ive also read that RAL7013 is really close to the Brown Bess, but Ive found that camo spray paint that you can use for airsoft guns could suffice & they list them in RAL colors, but some of them say on the can/instructions on website you dont need primer & you can just spray it directly on, but a sanding is required, im a bit dubious about doing that, as id rather spray a coat of primer on first. Along with the fact that the shiny plastic that the nerf gun is made out of, will need to be sanded down a bit first, as the shiny part dont like to take a coat of paint.
