lol ok this time i would like to now what everyones paint job on ther gun looks like
mine isn't much of a paint job its more of a n effort to reduce glare
my gun is clear so i used brown spraypaint and covered most of it up .the reason was b/c when its real sunny outside my gun glares alot giving away my position so i just spraypainted the clear parts dark brown and whaddayaknow it reduced the glare but it is a horrible job. i only spent like 5 min on it lol but my point wasn't to make it pretty it was to reduce the glare so....
it still stings real bad and thats what counts lol Twisted Evil

as far as patterns go i would go with a mixture of both (pointy and curved). and i would probably only use 3-4 colors (any more and your over coating). for woodland i would use OD green, Khaki, earth brown(darker) or black, and a lighter brown. your going to have to draw some stencils. the easiest way to do this is either free hand them(if you have alot of time and a very big imagination) or you could google some patterns, copy it to word, expand the images, then trace the images to the material that you are going o use for your stencils (plasticard, card stock, etc etc. d not us notebook paper the paint will just bleed through the paper.).

good luck, i want to see some pics once your done. Very Happy
