The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

So I got to painting my 3d printed PR this week

I didn't want to go overboard on the weathering so I have tried to keep it subtle, except around the magazine housing where it would naturally have more. The black painted parts have all had a coating of graphite powder and then subtle dry brushing. I am happy with the metal effect.

Still a bit to do and just waiting for the last few bits to dry in the workshop. Also need an ammo counter lol

Same here.
If you had not mentioned it, it would have been hard to tell those are not metal pieces.
