    Nope

    Layer of tan, light green stripes, dark green on stencil, brown on a stencil then a VERY light mist of black to darken it up just a touch

    It turned out really good! I’m seriously debating painting my Larue now. I think I’ll just go solid color this time.

    I am thinking the same thing, might do a little more FDE on one of my AR pistols and do a full FDE on a police shotgun I just picked up.
    I have a buddy pestering me wanting the shotgun so I might flip it. Don’t know yet:confused:

    If anyone is looking for a super close match to Aero and magpul FDE this is very very very close.

    If you get it use light coats and allow plenty of dry time to avoid fingerprints left in soft paint. Screenshot_20220718-104539_Amazon Shopping.jpg


    Optic and mount painted with the above paint

    Flashlight blends right in. Grips are still just a touch tacky so I’ll let it sit for a couple more days before it goes into safe

    I think I’ll take my rifle apart this time though. I’ll paint the upper/lower/handguard by themselves, and then put all the black parts back on. I’m thinking bronze and black this go around.
