| had to fix the picture orientation, the paint was a 4 layer process then i used graffiti remover to get the layer look,, it was a brown/white lazy stripe base coat, then a bright red/orange, then a desert tan, finally i spot shot it with some of that folliage green to finish.. let it dry and gave it a scrub job. i have pictures of the steps if you guys want them |

Pictures are gone.... Never mind they are back now. I think you should add a sling and a weaponlight. those are the last two things i am going for,, i want a two point and a surefire mounted on the right most forward slot on the handguard. (hopefully with a pressure pad on the top rail) |

Old green marksmanship sling meshed with an ALICE pack adjustment pack. I'll see if I have a pic of mine.
Edit: pics I took today 
Just a little time with a knife, lighter and some patience. You will need either another metal triglide or use the adjustment buckle that you take off the marksmanship sling. You have to cut off or remove the metal tip. For attachment you can loop the 1" webbing loop thru a sling swivel or you can cut it and use a triglide. You can also use the old black silent sling. Or buy some webbing from REI or another retailer. Check local surplus stores they often have the stuff you need. |
Paint and kief will give you a banger in the morning.
| Nice job imo. What brand of paint did you use? Also what steps did you take to prep it? I like the worn look as well. Its something I would consider doing on my new build unless I found someone who wont kill me on the real gun coating. I use to paint cars and bikes and to me I feel gun coating is very high.but thats just me. Oh atleast your feet didnt look like mine lol |
