Added Camo to my M4. Think it went well. What do you think?

[Comicbook Hero]

Hi all, I spent yesterday evening finally spraying my M4 AEG camouflage. I'd been mulling it over for a few weeks and decided to take the plunge. I've wanted to do it for a while as I regularly don camouflage and ambush unwary players and a black gun was a little obvious.

I thought i'd post some pics here and see what you guys think.

The M4 is an APS PR302. Quite a basic gun but has performed really well since I got her about a year ago.

I used Nuprol spray paint because that was all the shop had and I got brown, dark Earth and a khaki green colour. I have no idea what the proper names are because although there is enough writing on the can to keep you entertained for a day or two, for the life of me I couldn't see any reference to the colour. Best not muddle the lids up! I'll whack a review of the paint on a separate thread.

First of I broke the gun down to its component parts. I did a base coat of the DE on all the parts and allowed it to be touch dry. In yesterdays heat it was dry in five minutes or so. Then I used a mix of scrim and netting to cover the rifle parts and magazines and gave a gentle spray of a mix of the green and brown paints. It was then a matter of a light dusting spray of the green to take out some of the pattern and make it more random. Took a couple of hours to do it.

Here's the M4.

Here's the load out with my leafy kit to gauge how effective it is.

I reckon it's quite effective but would love your observations.

To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of camo guns, but I can tell a nice job when I see it! Might even convince me to look more into camo guns! Lovely job mate.
