I've been spray painting guns for over 20 years, and two examples I quoted above have always been the most effective type of paint scheme in the field. (I'm not military, but if you look at my feedback you'll notice I like to try a lot of different options, haha). Digital, micro patterns, and sponge patterns look neat up close, but don't really work as camouflage in the field. These types of patterns just blend into their dominate color from a distance. If actual effective camouglage is a concern don't waste your time with digi or sponge. You'd be just as well off with plain OD or CB. My "emergency" rifles are painted like Wulf's and RJeff's. Great job guys! Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By GaryT1776:

-Fancy Rustoleum Paint Job (Camo Khaki/Camo Earth Brown with a faint hint of Camo Deep Forest Green, all colors left over from a rattle can multi-cam job on another build from years ago). It was all black until yesterday when I figured I'd give it the rattle can treatment. (The previous owner of the Rail had it painted and I was unable to remove all the paint, several of the parts such as the bipod, rear sight, SPR butt plate, etc were well worn and used as well.)

Attempted my first rattle can paint job on a budget AR I just put together as a Guinea Pig. What do y'all think? Yay or nay? I'll get some pics of the whole rifle soon. Paint used was Aervoe Field Drab as a base. Then I used the laundry mesh bag method with some Aervoe OD Green, Aervoe Earth Brown and I also used a little Rustoleum Khaki to break up how dark it was looking.

I did a base of light greens and tan/brown and use a stencil that I made to add the shapes. This paint job was easy and didn't take very long at all.
