ok so had this idea for quite awhile now and as i have no pictures yet am going to do the best i can to describe this to you any input would be greatly appreciated.

the base gun model is actually just a block with the gas chambers, feedneck, ect.  cut and top and bottom tube cut. using block format to give myself more room for detail. top tube left side will be cut into a 3-D flowing letter set(much like the virtue styling) that will say LOVE. the bottom tube will be cut the same way with the word MATE. the bottom tube will be cut into and will reveal a sleeve much like the python (accept im sleeving in aluminum for weight reduction and so i can anno it). on the right side the top tube will also be 3-D milled with a more crumbled font (like the tremor NXT) into the word HATE. bottom tube will be cut the same way with the word KILL. the valve will also have 2 windows but haven't decided the shape type yet. the threads for the barrel will be slotted and the bottom of the body milled out. then there will be a tapered board tray (running break beams and a t-board) and a custom frame im thinking like the jakyl or like an old Zframe. SIC style foregrip,(still gotta figure out what the internal air paths of that thing look like) a pushback (term coined by a buddy of mine for reverse drop forwards.... adds length and stability to the guns for all us really tall ppl), and a simple on off (probably custom push button) ill keep you guys posted as the design changes and get some solidworks pix posted as soon as the programming is done

*drawn to scale*

left side of the gun black is where there will be cut all the way into the tubes (windows) the yellow is where the sleeve will be ive also made a slight tweak to the original design: the ram is going to be a custom ram that will be about half scale so my operating pressure should be around 40psi +/- 5 psi also so i can have see thru windows on the bottom tube!
