Custom Nixon Regulus Jungle DPM Camo

Custom Nixon Regulus Jungle DPM Camo

Its a bit more lurid than the photo suggests, I think I'll be toning down the yellow but overall pleased with it. Got a few more projects in the works, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, fun experimenting either way :D

Regulus - slight mod, coloured engraved text

Something that is really easy to do is add colour to the engraved text - I just fill in with enamel paint, let it dry to the touch (maybe around 45 mins is enough), then wipe around with lighter fluid to clean off the excess. No need for any precision, just don't clean off the excess until the enamel paint has dried sufficiently within the engraving itself.

I took the safe option of using red here, to go with the black/red stealth feel, but something like fluro green would be a bold option, pop out against the red display :D

Every Nixon Regulus ever? Not quite but close...

The variants with the red border, I ain't got. Priorities you know? For sure, I have my eye on the Gold SS and the Black Multicam. Got to pace myself ... :D

Custom Nixon Regulus - they didn't make the cut...

Have since cleaned these guys up and have other plans, but these are two trys at a kind of Autumnal / Forest Camo pattern. Wore 'em out for a few trips out but decided to go a different direction. No regrets, you gotta experiment :D

Nixon Regulus Tiger Camo [Desert Edition]

Yeah I'm pleased with this one. Started with a Tiger camo model and overdubbed the brown/green/beige stripes with a light sand and burnt orange colour scheme, still with the occasional element of dried out green. Its bold on the wrist, sure stands out! I think Nixon need to take this one on board :D

Unusual Regulus combo - but does it work?

Trying out a Multicam Tropic band on the Sith Trooper Regulus. Kinda like it but maybe I have loose wiring in the brain... I'll give it a few wears and see... I like to swap as many of the removable parts as possible to create a different vibe now and again...

Nixon Regulus Multicam Swamp

Following on from my Arctic Camo Nixon Regulus, this is my current fav, the personalised Multicam Swampland 😄 . I used the module from a fairly non-descript Multicam, with a Multicam Tropic band, and applied Olive Drab and various muddy hues of Green over select existing colour tones to get this marshy, swampy camo. Feels awesome on the wrist...
