I have an idea, but it would waste a ton of paint and time, so it can't be right!

An airbrush would be my guess.

paint tape and netting maybe?

Probably:

- Base coat
- Netting coat
- Mask
- Top coat
- Highlight edges

Check the picture thread sticky, there are several rifles in there with that type of paint job. When you find one that best matches what you want you can e-mail the member who posted the pic.

I think you'd see the net coat under the top coat, no?
