By far my favorite paint job I've ever done.

The first gun I ever painted was my L96, but at first it was this non blending stripe pattern. Then I learned a little bit and made what is my favorite paint job I've done. It was a dark green with a mild brown note in the background, it was almost like a chameleon in the woods. I also painted my M9 a while back, shits so cash. My most recent project was a worn Mk18 type of deal.

KJW M9. Beast of a gun, Melson still has it. Paint looks prime in person. One of my many franken DMR's. Built this one two years ago and got rid of it within a week (Like usual)

Like Grandpa always says "Don't do that." Don't be the person he says that to.

I also need your guys advice. For a more practical blending in color combination should I go with the top, (black, dark brown, OD green) or the bottom, with the additional tan color. For the bottom I went with a woodland scheme, but now that I look at it, it seems to pop. And yes, when it dries a little more I plan on muting the colors a bit.

Side note, I am having trouble with a particular black paint I used as the base. As you can see in the first image the stock is a little ridged, for lack of a better word. Would this be occurring because of the paint or the plastic on the stock or what. Thanks

That will usually happen when the temperature around the gun while it was drying changed rapidly at some point... usually if it cools down drastically while the paint is drying.

zakk, you're painting issue for black base coats can be fixed by doing short, thin coats of matte black as a prep coat. Several thin coats is the key to painting anything. ;D
