ARH Deathdealer 1 custom/repaint

Been working on my ARH Deathdealer...been doing some customization's and repainting...will be posting WIP.

Stock out of the box...apologize for thr lousy pics.




Picture of factory paint base before repaint.



Base after repaint.





Frazetta's painting was hard for me to tell if that was blood or lava on base so I kinda went with a hybrid of blood and lava.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
