Viperskins Colors... (aics pistolgrip upgrade)

[Victor Co Heather]

Hello Gents,

I've been getting a lot of questions about the colors of our V-Skins. It's very hard to take super accurate color pictures since each camera has a different sensor and each computer monitor a different display. Even our website colors are a bit off, a little too saturated (which I will be trying to correct next week).

So I lined up all our colors here to view together, so it will give you a pretty good idea of what they look like.

Also we have added a new color "Coyote Brown" which is a bit browner than FDE (and is also my favorite color- it looks great with the black pistolgrip).

1. Flat Dark Earth
2. Coyote Brown
3. Army Green
4. OD Fleck Camo
5. Hot Pink
6. Tactical Black

That Coyote is sweet, but I have almost the overwhelming urge to show up at a match with the hot pink!

It's funny you say that because I was thinking the same thing for my next local match. : )

where's the purple ?

Re: Viperskins Colors... (aics pistolgrip upgrade)

You should officially call the pink color "Christies Pink".

Diggin the Coyote. Youre making it harder and harder to resist a switch in stock setups.

Too bad my wife hates Pink. Otherwise I would have an excellent reason to buy her an AE MkIII!

Re: Viperskins Colors... (aics pistolgrip upgrade)

The OD Fleck Awesome!!!

The pics just dont do it justice.
Im a fan of OD but was a little hesitant because of
the colors in the pictures and what I thought the color might look like.
In person the color is entirely different.
The balck and tan look cool as hell close up but
not visible from 10+ feet, it just looks OD.

MV I know I said I would post pics but as soon as I was
done at the range I dropped her off on my way home at my gunsmith.
The receiver was torqued(I knew that already)...but on the brightside I dropped
a Badger M2008 in and it should be done very soon and I promise
I will snap some pics that show the true color of the OD Fleck in all its awesomeness.

AL

Oh and I think I should have went with the Pink too. I like it.

That coyote brown is sick! I've got the FDE now and I might just have to make a switch...

Get a coyote set and a pink set, go half and half.

Re: Viperskins Colors... (aics pistolgrip upgrade)

I'm not sure if you know, but you can get a "white card" and a 18% "grey card" and include them in one of your images to appropriately set the white balance and get the colors to come out a little more true on a lot more monitors...granted monitors have different color settings, but it would be a more accurate representation of color.

Dude... 500 Epic points to you if you do. Another 100 if you have a My Pretty Pony stick on it.

Also, digging the coyote brown. I just got a 1.5 chassis, definitely considering switching over once I get some time behind the gun.

Re: Viperskins Colors... (aics pistolgrip upgrade)

I got a set of the OD Fleck Camo a couple of weeks back. They are SOOOO much nicer than the original skins. The multicam look great but I will be sticking with the Fleck....unless I happen to get another gun in an AICS chassis!

Any word on the multicam?

Re: Viperskins Colors... (aics pistolgrip upgrade)

I have a couple sets coming in tomorrow and more at the end of next week.

Re: Viperskins Colors... (aics pistolgrip upgrade)

Michael,

Quick question on the colors (didn't see it above) - is the color a through and through color, or just surface? Ie, if it gets scratched up (very likely the way I am) will the pattern - say multicam scratch off, and show another color underneath, or will you just see a scrtch, but no color difference?

Probably too long for such a simple question !

The solid colors (Coyote, FDE etc) are "all the way through" colors. Only the Mulicam is a coating which if you cut into the skin would reveal the base polymer color.

The Multicam dip is pretty tough though, doesn't scratch easily at all.

Order placed. Couldn't resist. Went with the multicam, the cheekrest and couple of other items.

Will make a fine addition to my AI AE MK III.
