It is plated. They would pay a company to coat the runner then they would snap it together. Nothing special considering the only work really done was snapping plastic.
I don't think you can achieve such a shiny metallic finish with paint, even with Alclad.I believe the parts are indeed plated. If you pay closer attention to some of the parts you can see the gate marks exposing the bare plastic underneath (this is more noticeable on top of the rifle). There are some services where you can send your plates and they will have them look nice and blingy like this but I think it's like 100$ per plate or something...

How do you achieve that sort of finish?! It looks like they're all plated.

ReplyDeleteThanx to share this fantastic work with us!
I also want to know how you get that kind of finish. Do you do the chrome spray process to the entire kit and then use clear pain on top?
ReplyDeleteLook for wave's kosutte ginsan~
