Hello All,

Here are my three latest builds with my own camo done on two of them.  The Multi-cam was the biggest pain in the arse but definitely rewarding.  I don't care for the colors that usually are used so I used a variant on the color scheme.  I think it turned out ok.  I have two more builds in the works and will post photos when I get those done.  Thanks to this site I was able to do all of the work on my own and use the Green scheme gun on an advanced tactical course and it worked flawlessly.  Thanks again.

Close ups as requested.  You can tell it is not a pro job - but not bad for a home job if I don't say so myself.  Duracoat is kind of a pain to work with.  The molycoat has to be baked but as far as toughness they are both great quality.  I didn't duracoat the barrels as they tend to burn with high rate of fire.  The molycoat smells when hot but it is rated for higher heat temps.  I also used the following writeup for the duracoat and the broomstick technique found in the refinishing section under armory.  Thanks for the comments.
