Wow, this thread's just jamming along! I love that Praxis, JohnsonArms- just the right style for caution stripes, I'll have to try that out if I do any more green-and-black paints. Speaking of which....
My favorite, the Alpha Trooper! With a Raider stock added. 18-round drum and foregrip pump make this a very satisfying and reliable clip-fed blaster. Get yours at Target today!
Okay, this isn't new, I just added a yellow stripe, and wrapped the grip with some olive green ribbon I found lying around. I like it better. Also I should mention the ribbed tubing on the stock is just electrical wire sheath.
But check out THIS baby...
I didn't bother to paint the ammo belt, I wanted to make sure it didn't have any excuses to jam (plus the belt is grey anyway so it looks fine). Still runs sweet!
I did paint the ammo box though. The dirt is just black paint stippled on and dabbed with paper towel. I'm also getting better at the silver Sharpie metal chip effect.
The business end came out nice. This was a pain to mask, but worth it. The metal parts are sprayed bronze, then edged with silver sharpie again.
I'm also working on some nifty black "Body Armor" for the kids this Xmas. It's turning out nice, I'll have to make myself a set too! See it here:

See if you can guess the materials used, heh heh...
Happy modding,
