Dont rush it, make sure you leave it to dry after each layer. Do lots of light layers, and make sweeping passes with the can from a distance. Its also best to rough the surface up a bit too. Try sanding it lightly.

What I used is print off a sample camo of your choice on a A4 paper, mine was sth between woodland and multicam

cut out some shape with a sharp knife

then you have your template

prepare your gun:
clean
spray a base color in my case is dark earth

then using the same piece of A4 paper

add on layers.

As the A4 paper is obviously smaller than your gun so cover the gun.

when finished I recommend you use a prime layer to protect the paint.
