Paint is Krylon cammie paint, and the paintjob appears lighter than it is.

Looks too clean to me. I'd wear it down a little.

How about you just go to games and use it instead?

Artificial wearing = Looks like a$$/is retarded.

I need some more inspiration! I'm repainting my G36 and am looking around for some more good ideas.

And to add something, here is my G36 in Tactical Primer-Grey.

I say keep the gray. It makes it look like a pewter WH40k weapon.

I don't see a point in making it look too pretty.

Here's a photo of my gear. It was a Condor MOPC in ACU with pouches mixing from OD to ACU from TT, Blackhawk, Condor and issued ones. Solid OD with a few stripes of a loam / light green:
Image

And here's another shot of it from the back. I put some tape over the red line for the IFAK to keep it as a med pouch. I noticed with this pic that some of the ACU is showing, so I have to paint up the top of the inside as well:
Image

Same game (Santa's War) I was loaning some of my gear (BDS Tactical simple stacker chest rig with more various pouches) also painted in solid OD with some stripes of loam as well as my rifle. Here's my rifle, just a simple OD with a few streaks of loam. M15a4 (CA) w/ PEQ15 and M68 Aimpoint on it:

Hey G36, did you paint that as the entire gun, or separate parts?

I painted the whole thing at once, all though I did have to touch up a few spots separately.

Mind me asking why you're curious?

The flash makes it look much brighter than it really is. Its almost done, just needs an ACOG and a sling mount and its savvy.
