Legend of Zelda M4 build, Custom Engraving
« on: July 20, 2013, 03:33:31 AM »
So a while back, i had the idea to do some custom engraving onto a blank M4 metal body, and today i completed some of my work. I'm still juggling some other ideas, but here is what i just finished.
Ladies and gentlemen, may i give you: The Legend of Zelda Tri-Force M4!!




I realize that while most people suck, there are still some genuine characters that exist out here. I'll show my appreciation by being genuine in return.
Love the sport.

Nice job, good to know there are engravers on AA, there is much varied talent on this forum and it is great when it is shared with others :)

Thank you! As far-fetched as it may seem, this was actually done using a dremel. Turned out pretty well, being that it was my first time ever trying this. Perhaps i'll do more projects in the future, or even outsource my skills for people that want some custom work done  :)

Ooh that looks pretty sick, I just ordered a Beta Project Magpul AK, so let me know if you can do any work on that! :)  I'm thinking about something small on the top of the receiver, so let me know!

If anyone would like to have some work done, just PM me with a picture of what you have in mind, and we can talk about it :)

Very nice engraving, tiedye. What did you use to engrave (as far as tools), if you don't mind me asking?

Bahaha Thanks Moose. Good question actually! Here's my little setup.

Nah, My goal was to do it like this. If it were a legit airsoft company logo, i'm sure they would do it this way too.
