    30+ years of painting vehicles and equipment and I’m shy to paint a stupid rifle. I’m taping now and I’m going to have some fun with this. No templates I have an idea in my head, scary I know

    You can do it. IMO utilize “misting” instead of heavy coats or stripes. I personally think misting different natural colors makes for the best results

    nice. my area has tons of ferns and I've seen them used to great effect. I'll probably try that and/or maybe some of these leaves I see on these small brushy trees. I have an airsoft gun I can practice on first.

    I’ve done one of my shotguns. Haven’t gotten around to my rifles. Sticks, grass and leaves for pattern

    Alright so I reached in and pulled my balls out and made use of them. It’s done just waiting to untape it and it’s God awful humid outside. A few pics along the way it may look like shit when I get done but as long as it breaks a up the outline I’m good with it

    That came out great!

    Pro-tip for getting started painting:

    1. Uncap base coat paint
    2. Mist a line from stock to muzzle
    3. Now its "ruined", get to painting.
