Take the lighter color in the camo, and kind of lightly blend in some the edges of the Kryptek, then do the same very lightly with the darker color.

Myself, I'd go darker. I prefer a more stealth like paint scheme and think the silver is pretty bright. Nicely executed

Nice build. I like it because it is unique. I haven't seen that before.

What are you using for stencils and what type of finish is it?

I used vinyl stencils with a backer. It is Cerakote C series applied with an air brush.

I decided to darken it a bit by air brushing over with armor black.
The stainless is darker, even though it doesn't show well in the pics
